Determine whether each sentence expresses meaning literally or figuratively

the 2 on the left on top of each other (costed an arm and leg and the barking up the tree) are figurative and the others are literal.

Explanation:

You can’t do those things in reality. But the litter also ones seem slightly reasonable

Literal Meaning: I am so hungry that I'll probably eat three or four helpings of dinner. I easily jumped over the barrels on my horse, Skip.

Figurative Meaning: It cost her an arm and leg to replace the refrigerator when it broke. You are barking up the wrong tree if you're trying yo get information from me.

Explanation:

A statement uses a figurative language when it deviates from their literal or real meaning, relying on figures of speech such as metaphors, similes and hyperbole (blatant exaggeration) to represent something else and give readers new insights. On the contrary, a statement uses a literal language when it is is realistic, accurate and free from exaggeration and distortion.

The statement I am so hungry that I'll probably eat three or four helpings of dinner expresses a literal meaning because although four helpings of dinner is a lot, some people can have them. Likewise, I easily jumped over the barrels on my horse, Skip also represents reality.

The sentence It cost her an arm and leg to replace the refrigerator when it broke express a figurative meaning because the idiomatic expression "It cost her an arm and leg" is simply a blatant exaggeration to convey how expensive it was to replace the refrigerator and, therefore, it does not represent reality.

Similarly, the sentence You are barking up the wrong tree if you're trying to get information from me uses a idiomatic expression: to be barking up the wrong tree, and it should not be taking literally as it means to be wrong about something.

the answer is d i just took the test

21 balloons is the story of professor william sherman's travels.

in 1883, he set off from san francisco for a balloon ride over the pacific and was found a month later floating with 21 balloons in the atlantic ocean. this seemed an astounding feat and everyone wanted to know what had happened.    

professor sherman was loyal, however, and said he would tell his tale first to the western american explorers club in san francisco, of which he was a member. this built up suspense for several chapters before he began to tell of the wonders of his adventures and the amazing island of krakatoa, an island which had just been blown up by a volcano.  

the residents of krakatoa are all millionaires who live under a "gourmet government" of their own devising. we get to see all the incredible adventures that creative people with unlimited resources would create according to the author.
