The answer is C: pleasant.

The word affable, in the context of the passage above, means pleasant, agreeable, enjoyable, nice, so that in this sense, the shepherd named Jiang is a person who is all of the above which fits in nicely with how he formed a bond with the poor villagers and how they came out to listen to his music. Affable would be the contrary of obnoxious or insufferable.

The first excerpt is satire because satire is the use of humor, irony, or exaggeration. 

The second excerpt is repetition. The phrase, "Now is the time..." is being repeated.

The third excerpt is rhetorical questions. Throughout the excerpt, there are questions being asked which the readers aren't supposed to be answered. Instead, the questions are there to make a point.
