I have already computed the charge of nursing a beggar's child (in which list I reckon all cottagers, labourers, and four-fifths

of the farmers) to be about two shillings per annum, rags included; and I believe no gentleman would repine to give ten shillings for the carcass of a good fat child, which, as I have said, will make four dishes of excellent nutritive meat, when he hath only some particular friend, or his own family to dine with him.

One aspect of satire evident in this excerpt is <span>verbal irony, because the author does not truly believe his own words.
Obviously, the author doesn't really mean what he says here - he doesn't really want to get a fat child and eat him for his excellent nutritive meat. He is trying to let people know how silly it is to think that way by using verbal irony, which is there to show the opposite of what he says.

Read the passage from Animal Farm.
Lorico [155]

This is very interesting. I don't remember it at all, and I should. However, I think there is an answer.

First there is Boxer's reaction. He had a very pragmatic view of what the bank notes meant. If you can't eat them, of what value are they? They seem an awful trade to him: at least the timber had use.

So he doesn't like the deal, but the pigs are the masters and no one argues with them.

It isn't D. Fredrick is a louse. He will deceive anyone if there is gain for him in it.

Napoleon really isn't deceitful in this passage. He is very vain. C is not quite right, but it maybe your best answer.

I don't see what B has to do with anything.

A historically has not been proven to be true. Tread carefully around a dictator. They can do you a great deal of damage. Mao for example did not seek approval: he demanded it and he killed millions getting that approval. Same with Stalin.

It is either A or C. A is true of Napoleon. It is not true of the worst dictators of the last century. C doesn't seem to fit, but I can't get rid of it. The answer is between those two. You are going to have to pick or choose one of the other two. I'd pick A myself, but I'd sure be holding my nose.
