Read the sentence and answer the question below:
the silence of the night screamed frightfully in my ears.
which of the following correctly describes this phrase?
silence that screams is a paradox.
silence of the night is a metaphor.
screamed frightfully is a hyperbole.
screamed in my ears is a simile.

Screamed Frightfully is a hyperbole.

Explanation:

In this excerpt "The silence of the night" has been personified and "screamed frightfully" is hyperbole that suggests the exaggeration employed by the author to enhance the intensity of the scream in the speaker's ears and to have an effective impact on the readers. Thus, only the third choice stands by its statement. The rest of the options go incorrect as there is no usage of paradox, metaphor or simile in the excerpt given. We are unable to witness either a self-contradictory statement or a comparison here. The literary devices that have been used here are personification and hyperbole only.
