Answer (1)
Answer:4. I have a ton of homework– Means you have a very large amount of homework; “ton” is exaggeration. 5. If I buy that new game I will die– Means you’re extremely excited (or overwhelmed) about the idea; not literal. 6. He is skinny as a toothpick– Means he’s very, very thin, like a toothpick. 7. This car runs faster than the speed of light– Means the car is incredibly fast, unbelievably fast. 8. He’s got tons of money– Means he has a huge amount of money. 9. Her brain is the size of a pea– Means she’s not very smart, very little intelligence. 10. He is older than the hills– Means he is extremely old, age exaggerated. ADDITIONAL KNOWLEDGE: What is hyperbole?A figure of speech that uses obvious, deliberate exaggeration to emphasize something emotionally or dramatically, and is not meant to be taken literally.
