If you are hungry, you might feel inclined to turn to poaching. But be careful: this is risky. Taking livestock is theft, and theft is a felony which carries the death sentence. Killing wild animals that live on another man’s land is also against the law; even taking a single fish from a river can result in a fine of a shilling or more. It is unlikely that you will be hanged for taking a wild animal such as a rabbit; but, even so, you will get a fine amounting to three times the value of the animal as well as three months in prison, and you will have to enter into a bond to guarantee your good behavior in the future; a second offense will be treated more harshly. If a gamekeeper attacks you and you defend yourself, you can be charged with assault. You may find yourself on the gallows if you injure him.

Answer:
The answer is: A) <u>The rhyme scheme supports the narrator’s complaint of monotony.</u>
Explanation:
This excerpt is basically explaining a routine; however it doesn't seem as to be enjoying it or being cheerful about it, justyfing this, we can see a modal verb there, "must" which implies obligation; so this is the reasin wht letter B isn't possible. This excerpt isn't humorous as well, adjectives and nouns are used in a simple manner, nothing humorous to see, as well as no emotional outburst for, again, simple words are used, nothing to exaggerate being humorous or emotional, this is why letter C and D aren't correct. On the other hand we have letter A which is basically what a routine is about "monotony".
