Answer:
The author effectively shows the establishment of Elizabethan theaters:
d) by listing in chronological order when several important theaters were built.
Explanation:
In the passage, the theaters built back in Elizabethan England are not listed randomly. The author uses a chronological sequence, letting readers know which theater was built in which year:
- 1596: the Swan;
- 1597: the Blackfriars theater (opened its doors in 1599);
- 1599: the Globe;
- 1600: the Fortune.
The author does not use a humorous or a critical tone. He is straightforward, simply presenting information in an objective way.
Having all that in mind, we can safely choose letter D as the correct answer: by listing in chronological order when several important theaters were built.
