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: "which is the English way of settling everything" 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.

All Summer In a day

stellarik [79]

Answer:

The central reason of “the biggest crime of all,” that Margot who was initially bullied by the other children had caused was that she was different. She had not been on Venus all her life and the kids envied her “possible future” of getting to return to Earth next year.

So the right answer is Option B.

Explanation:

Ray Bradbury’s story “All Summer in a Day,” shows the colours of jealousy and how can that lead to cruelty and cause difference. This theme is clearly embossed in the story and we get a clear picture of it when the other children envy Margot as she is different. Because it was only Margot who remembered seeing the sun and feeling its warmth. The other children were only two years old when they came to Venus so they are unable to recall a day they had felt and seen the sunshine.
