Answer:

A. I think the ushers might question a grocery bag of candy under your sweater.

Explanation:

Remember that an understatement is a figure of speech that is used to make a situation seem less important than it really is. An event or thing is presented with less strenght than expected. It is very used in literature and on every day conversations, some of times with an ironic effect.

In this case the author of the sentence is being ironic as the ushers won't allow people to enter some things into the cinema. So by saying they "might question" the grocery bag he is impliying that they will be firm and won't allow the candies  .

The parents of a deviant child often want to find some way to excuse their offspring’s behavior, and it’s common to hear them sa
Alla [95]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A deviant behavior can be defined as the behavioral pattern that stands in the contradiction of the norms of the society.

The Differential association theory was theorised by Edwin Sutherland in 1939. According to this theory of deviance, people tend to learn the values, attitudes, and motives for criminal activities from the people that one is surrounded with. This theory has played a vital role in analysing the behavior and studies of criminology.

In the case, the parents who say that their offsprings have learned the deviant behavior from the company of bad people or crowd resembles the theory of differential association proposed by Edwin.

So, the correct answer is option A.
