Read the following excerpt from Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Concord Hymn" and answer the question Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.
Which of the following best explains why this is an example of hyperbole?
The records of where the embattled farmers once stood are no longer available to verify the claim.
Before mechanization and the Industrial Revolution, there was far less noise in the world, so everyone was able to hear the
gunshot at the same time.
Since it is impossible for a shot to be heard all around the world this is claiming that there were widespread consequences
of the shot
The communications technology at the time allowed news of the battle to travel almost instantaneously all over the world.
