The answer is C: A teacher assigns a 10 page research project and says, "this might take a little time".

An understatement is a statement that underplays the significance, value, size, relevance or importance of something and it makes it seem considerable less than what it actually is. In this example, the teacher makes it seem like writing a 10 page essay will take just “a little time”, when in fact, any student knows that a 10 page essay in a considerable enterprise that will take a lot more than just a little time.

The meadow which was covered with yellow, blue and white flowers was a beautiful sight. The native grasses were thriving because the whole area, barring only the pasture had become a registered nature reserve. In fact, it was so pretty that i tried to take a picture, but when i saw that, my phone battery had died. Disappointed, i walked back to the hotel to recharge it.
