Olympiad: reading hidden feelings in hard times ★★★, sentence 2
Two traps hide in the words: hyperbole, where a feeling is blown up ("worst day of my LIFE" after losing a football match), and downplaying, where something big is made small ("it's nothing, just tired" from a friend who has stopped eating lunch); the first usually passes in a day, the second is the one to check.
Who acts: Two traps, match, friend, first, second · What happens: hide, blow up, lose, downplay, make, be · To what, where: hyperbole, words, feeling, football match, something, nothing · Speech: someone speaks here
