This question refers to the article "The yuckiest food in the Amazon." In this article, author Mary Roach describes her experiences sharing food with a tribe in the Amazon. The host of such an experience is Isaac. The author describes Isaac's living room as a low log bench in the open-walled platform. The floor is dirty but uncluttered. The decoration consists of parrot feathers, jaguar skulls and a government poster urging vaccinations for children. The main reason why Roach includes these details is because she wants to create an image in the mind of the reader in order to better understand what the experience was like for her.
The correct answer is A.
The family needs a safe, dry place to sleep in the winter. Their home in the salt cavern is described as an "impregnable castle." Falconhurst had fallen apart and they decided to use it as a summer home. They move to the cave to survive the winter.
I think that its either B, the host's responses to the woman, or C, the woman's excessive commentary. (I'm leaning more towards B, but i'm not sure.)
One example that establishes irony is woman asking if the musician is "grateful" for being introduced to white people and the host's contradictory response. I hope this helped! :)
Answer:
To show a contrast
Explanation:
If we look at the statement closely, we will observe that people's idea of the feeding mode of Venus Fly Trap is different from the way the plant actually feeds.
People have the idea that the Venus Fly Trap eats larger animals (meat) whereas it only eats tiny insects. The transition 'despite' as used in the sentence shows a contrast between people's idea of the Venus Fly Trap and its actual feeding mode.
