He would miss the point of it.

Satire is a genre of literature, and sometimes graphic and performing arts, which emphazises vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings in order to ridicule, in an attempt to shame individuals, corporations, government, or society itself.

Satires are both meant to be humorous and it is intended to create a constructive social criticism. A feature of satire is irony or sarcasm as well as parody, burlesque, exaggeration.

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

B) Toe dancing was developed in the early nineteenth century, but it was not widely used until the 183s.

Explanation:

At first, I thought the answer was D because it showed a contrast, but then I realized there should probably be a comma after "however" so the answer is most likely B.

Hope this helps and is the right answer :)
