Show transcript
We can use contextual information to make predictions about what we expect to see in a text. Forming a personal response to a text involves considering how the writer's attitude changes as a text progresses. Hyperbole is when writers exaggerate for dramatic effect. Hyperbole can help readers to empathise with and relate to a writer. It can also help to build suspense and maintain ready engagement.
