The correct answer is A: Through his constant questions.

<em><u>In "The Storyteller," by Saki (H. H. Munro), Cyril keeps irritating Aunt and making difficult questions during a train journey. She is so annoyed that she decides to tell the children an unoriginal story, which does not satisfy them. As a result, the Bachelor joins the conversation and tells them a story that does not involve a happy ending, which Aunt finds improper and the children amusing.</u></em>

H. H. Munro, also known by his pen name "Saki", was born in Burma but had to move to England after the sudden death of his mother. His stories are usually a criticism and a satire of the Edwardian England in which he grew up .In "The Storyteller" he satirizes society's values when it comes to raising and educating children. <u>He uses the constant questions posed by Cyril to contribute to the satire of the story and to allude to the theme of questioning authority.</u>

Write a paragraph about how anne frank found the courage through the difficult years in hiding
mestny [16]
Anne Frank demonstrates great bravery when she hides with her family and others in the underground annex during the Holocaust. She is well aware that leaving the attic, as well as being discovered by others other than the sympathetic people who are hiding the Jewish families in the attic, would almost certainly result in her death.
