The answer is: A. Through his constant questions.

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.

The correct answer is A.

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. 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.

Sentence B is the correct option. When using "however" to write a compound sentence, we should write a semi-colon before and a comma after it. When "however" is used at the beginning of a sentence, we should write a comma following it.

An informal writing style in nonfiction would contain
NikAS [45]
Informal is defined as relaxed, unofficial, or easygoing. If this is a multiple choice question, consider what choices are formal versus informal. <span>Anything that would fall under the category of "formal," which can also mean academic, rigid, proper, precise, or strict, can be ruled out as wrong answers. </span>Things that would be "formal" include tones, or the way that the story is written, that are very rigid and academic. In addition, a list of facts presented one after the other would be formal, not informal. Once you are done ruling these formal answers out, you will know what is informal.
