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.

In paragraph 5, the author tells us that Daniel Wright is a professor at Concordia University in Portu
vagabundo [1.1K]

We can infer that the function the given information play within the text is: A.  To establish Wright as a credible source on Shakespeare.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

Function is actually known to be the duty something/somebody is carrying out in a given place or position. Function has to do with the activity that is meant to work or operate in an acceptable and proper way.

We see that in the informational text titled, "Concordia University becomes hub of conflict over who wrote the works of William Shakespeare", we see that part of paragraph 5 states: "Most attending 15th Annual Shakespeare Authorship Studies Conference at Concordia, which ended Friday, are Oxfordians, says Daniel Wright,  a Concordia University English professor. He directs the Richard Paul & Jane Roe Shakespeare Authorship Research Centre, which he says has become a major locus for the anti-Stratfordian camp." This actually shows that the inclusion of the text by the author is to establish  Wright as a credible source on Shakespeare.
