Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Question:

Why do authors use satire?

Explanation:

Heya, I heard you need help! Well, let me explain for ya! c:

The definition of satire:

The definition of satire is basically the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

The other answers have nothing to do with funny things or "exposing things" other than D, which is the answer. Correct me if I am wrong in the comments.

Hope that helped! If you have anymore questions, just comment down and I will try my best to help you! Au revoir!

The underlined portion of this line is an example of what type of figurative language. "nature's first green is gold, her hardes
eimsori [14]

"Nature's first green is gold"

The first half of this line is a metaphor. It compares the beginning of spring and new life to the color gold. Gold is also symbolic of something that is good or valuable.

"her hardest hue to hold"

This half of the line is personification. Personification is giving nonhuman things humanlike traits. In this line it gives Nature, a nonhuman, the ability to hold, which is a human trait.

These lines are describing when things begin in Nature. Most often this occurs in Spring. The flowers begin to shoot up from the ground, and new animal babies are born. This is the time where everything is golden. Things are new, exciting, and innocent. Unfortunately, this doesn't last, which is why it's hard to hold. Things grow up and change. They gain more knowledge and lose their innocence they once had.
