Which excerpt from “The Life You Save May Be Your Own” contains an example of figurative language? a. She was ravenous for a son-in-law.
b. The old woman agreed with him that this was so.
c. “Teach her to say something else,” the old woman said.
d. The old woman said she would give him the money.

Answers

The correct answer is A.


The statement "She was ravenous for a son-in-law" contains figurative language. The specific type of figurative language used here is hyperbole.


Hyperbole is a form of figurative laungage that uses extreme exaggeration. Here, the statement implies that she is very, very hungry for a son-in-law. This is a greatly exaggerated way of saying that she really wants a son-in-law. By using figurative language, the author makes clear how greatly she desires a son-in-law.

Based on the question above, the best answer for this question would be:

a.        She was ravenous for a son-in-law.

The figurative language is evident in this statement because it compares the adjective to the subject, it is how the speaker would describe in an exaggerated way.
