Answer 1

(A.) David Knocked on the door of every house, shed, and chicken coop until he had worn his knuckles to the bone.

Step-by-step explanation:

A hyperbole is an exaggerated statement, or clainm that is not meant to be taken literally.

(David wouldnt have actually knocked on every door enough to painfully shed his skin and muscle to the bone lol)
