I had an unusual day today. A box showed up on my doorstep and everything changed. At first, I was enjoying a good bowl of cereal and then my doorbell rang. I opened the door and there was the mailman, standing with a nervous looking face. That was unlike him, so I asked him what was wrong. He said "This box gives me a weird feeling.." but I thought maybe he was playing a prank on me or trying to scare me. I said "C'mon! It's just a box. Nothing is gonna happen!" He handed me the box and said "Well, see for yourself..." I gave him a strange look after I said goodbye and he ran off to the left of my house. I opened up the box and there was a book with a strange symbol on it. I opened the book and saw an unusual language written in it. I threw the book in a drawer and decided not to waste time on it. But after that I felt... strange. I was more anxious and my heart was beating faster. I went back to the book and decided to try and decipher it, but I couldn't. Apparently, the writing was in some ancient language. So I ditched it again and decided to take a nap.

Answer:
Sample Answer:
Your answer may include the following points:
descriptions of what you saw, smelled, heard, and felt as one of the soldiers
your reaction to the lieutenant’s sharp cry of pain
events that followed the lieutenant’s injury
the scene at the field hospital and its effect on you
Here’s an example:
I was about to take my regiment’s share of coffee, when suddenly I heard a sharp cry of pain. I looked up to see the lieutenant wincing in pain, holding his bloodied arm. He was hit by a sniper. I was stunned, but in a moment I regained my composure and rushed forward to help. He wouldn’t let us help him, so I followed him to the field hospital.
As the doctor examined him, I was dead sure that amputation was the only option the doctor had to save the lieutenant. That is how it is in the line of fire. A freak bullet takes your life or limb. I am a soldier, yet the tragedy and absurdity of war struck me as sharply as a bullet as I walked through the hospital tents filled with amputees, their eyes staring into their hopeless future.

Answer:
The correct answer is B. Parody.
Explanation:
A parody is a vulgar, exaggerated, or comic imitation of another work known to the public, through which the original work is ridiculed, even by small references to it. Broadly speaking, a parody is a sub-form of a satire: the story (the text or the image) is imitated in an ironic way. This can happen in a harmless as well as a corrosive way. The success of the parody will be greater the more famous the original and the parodied (magnified) elements are therefore more recognizable.
