Hi there!

The answer you are looking for is: The use of satire makes readers realize that Tom is foolish because he doesn’t fear the devil.

I hope that this statement is between your options.

In pieces of literature, performing arts or dances, satire is a genre that is used to ridicule or shame someone through wittiness and in form of humour.

If Tom did something satirical to the person-receiver the reader would interpret Tom as hilarious or witty, but also the reader may imply that Tom was being rude and immature or somehow insensitive.

Hope this helps!

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

If I were in Okonkwo's position, I felt a little worried about trying to be a different person from my father. I would demostrate that I could be brave, saver and be against all the movements that they could remind how my father was. I decided to control my feelings and did not demostrate that I was a human being.  

I would work really hard to prove that I was be able to change the destiny of my people without being an arrogant or wasteful. I would try to be nice with my family instead of having the same actitude like my father. I would take advantage of having a good relationship with my subjects and I would make a difference in their lives and at the same time I would rule different from my father did. I would have all my wives but I would handle them lovely and they were be able to help me to have a peace relationship with my kids.

It would make me to feel happy to be different from my father and helped a lot of people, be really a real man and I could demostrate my feelings; Not to be too hard with my own family specially my wives and kids. Have beautiful feelings would help to think in a better way and it stopped to do wrong actions that would damage my own honor and even my family.

If I were Okonkwo, I would react differently, I would not make the same mistakes and I would try to be a different person; a comprehensive, humble, loyal, lovely, person. I would think different and be able to demostrate that have feelings sometimes is good and help us to think that I as a human being could make mistakes or ask for help.

Explanation:

All the answers wrote means that the life of Okonkwo was not easy. He suffered from his father's life. He tried to be different but at the end his own feelings were harder that he wishes for a new life with his wives and kids. He did not know how to handle all the situation that he lived with his father and avoid repeting some destructive behaviors with his family. He prefered to be punishement hard instead of admiting he was wrong.
