Explanation:
Pope used the mock-epic genre to weave humor into the poem, The Rape of the Lock.
<span>The mock-epic genre resembles the epic in that its central concerns are serious and often moral, but deviates from the epic in the fact that the approach must now be satirical rather than earnest is symptomatic of how far the culture has fallen.
</span>
The verse form of the poem is the heroic couplet. It is composed of <span>rhymed pairs of iambic pentameter lines -- lines of ten syllables each, alternating stressed and unstressed syllables.</span>
<span>The excerpt suggests that Johnson’s work is significant because it reflects an exhaustive study of its words.
In the excerpt above, Johnson says that he used many methods in order to compile this dictionary - he read a lot of books, used his experience, and used many analogies for readers to connect words and their meanings on their own. A is incorrect because that's not the point of a dictionary; B is incorrect because he doesn't even mention other dictionaries; D is incorrect because a dictionary cannot only list obscure words.
</span>
The answer is either B or D
