Answer:

The characterization of the children creates satire because They are pleased to learn that the prince chooses pigs over flowers.

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide complete information. Here is the complete question:

Read the excerpt from "The Storyteller."

"Why weren't there any flowers?"

"Because the pigs had eaten them all," said the bachelor promptly. "The gardeners had told the Prince that you couldn't have pigs and flowers, so he decided to have pigs and no flowers."

There was a murmur of approval at the excellence of the Prince's decision; so many people would have decided the other way.

How does the characterization of the children create satire?

A) They are curious about what is in the garden.

B) They are pleased to learn that the prince chooses pigs over flowers.

C) They interrupt the bachelor just as much as they interrupt their aunt.

D) They sometimes interrupt because they like the story they are being told.

"The Storyteller" satirizes many human characteristics, this excerpt shows how people agree with the prince in his selection of pigs over flower, when in real life most people would never do that, besides it seems normal to children to make this choice the characterization of children is not the one of a regular kid it is the opposite.

How does edwards sway his audience? why do you think that this was effective?
PtichkaEL [24]
<span>Edwards gave this sermon to his congregation in Enfield, CT, in 1741, during what is known as The Great Awakening in American religion, a period in which leaders of the church were hoping to re-instill religious convictions, which they felt were weakening, in their congregations. It is almost a shame, by the way, that Edwards is chiefly remembered for this harsh sermon--most of his writing and his service to the church was much more positive.</span>

3. Why are military leaders concerned that only a small number of counties reliably produce soldiers?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

<u><em>This is because it is not unsustainable and also unfair in a democratic society. </em></u>

Explanation:

For decades now, most of US soldiers have some from a certain demographic. The age bracket, education and even race and even geography plays a big role.

For example, the North-East of the United States is the most densely population region in the country but produces far less recruits than the Southern parts of the country.

This not only creates a civilian-military divided, but can restrict the talent and skills the army is constantly recruiting for. The more diverse the pool of recruits, the better equipped the US army would be.
