Answer 1

1. I told you not to do that a million times!

2. My mom is so upset at me that she'll never forgive me!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hyperbole is an exaggeration that is used to emphasize a point or to create humor. In the first sentence, the hyperbole "a million times" is added to emphasize the speaker's frustration and to make the point that they had warned the listener repeatedly. In the second sentence, the hyperbole "never forgive me" is added to create an extreme exaggeration, emphasizing the speaker's mother's level of upset.
