Denise came in from shoveling snow in the driveway. Her lips were blue, her nose was red, and there were little icicles on her eyelashes. “I may have to skip a swim in the lake today,” she told her mother. Which literary device did the author use in the passage? a. understatement b. irony c. hyperbole d. allegory

understatement

Explanation:

This is an understatement because Denise, according to the description, looks and feels really sick. On top of that, she looks as if she is about to get frostbite. She is no doubt going to have to skip a swim in the lake today, as well as other precautions for when people are sick, such as take medicine or stay in bed all day, which makes her saying an understatement.
