The correct answer is the letter C.

The explanation for my choosing the letter c as the right answer is that hyperbole is the expression of exaggeration. It is a figure of language classified as a figure of thought. And for this very reason, it is a stylistic resource capable of increasing the expressiveness of the text. It has a special particularity, it is the figure that makes everything very exaggerated, besides the real .

In this text, there is an exaggeration in comparing the preparations to take Colin into the garden, with the preparations made by generals of war. Therefore, the letter C shows an example of hyperbole.

C is the correct answer
