Answer:

An example of satire here is: "Those two old brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before, and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet, which is the English way of settling everything"

Explanation:

When we talk about a satire, we need to know that is a technique that authors used to express humor, exaggeration, irony or to expose or ridicule people's behavior or vices. Here we have some irony in the sentence especially in this part: "<em>which is the English way of settling everything</em>" Here he is making fun of the way that English people resolve their problems. He is trying to say that problems are serious and to resolve them you need more than just a bet.

Definition of “Verbal Modifier”
valkas [14]

A verbal modifier is a word or phrase that can be used to describe a verb or a verbal phrase.

A modifier can be defined as a word, phrase, or clause that gives information about another word in the same sentence.

Example of verbal modifier in English grammar is- "Infinitive".

An infinitive is a verbal consisting of the word "to" placed before a verb (in its simplest "stem" form) which functions as a noun, adjective, or adverb.

Examples of infinitive to read, to run, to jump, to play, to sing, to laugh, to cry, to eat, and to go etc.

The following points of how to identify an infinitive phrase in a sentence are-

  • Find the word "to".
  • Second, if the word placed after "to" is a verb, then it is an infinitive.
  • If the infinitive is put in the middle of the sentence, then the infinitive phrase starts at "to" and ends at the end of the sentence.
