Explanation:
In ancient Greece theatre, the chorus represented a group of actors who recited the prologue and epilogue, provided background information, commented on the main actions of the play, and performed different songs or dances.

Eventually, the chorus was reduced to 12 – 15 performers, and took a more active role in storytelling, by representing a collective character or linking the audience with the piece itself. The chorus was often the same sex as the main character.
Answer:
D. This voice highlights the absurdity of thinking that there is something wrong about a wet umbrella.
Explanation:
Gabriel Garcia Marquez wrote "Uses and Abuses of the Umbrella" to present a humorous take on the importance and concept of the umbrella. The hilarious story delves into how the speaker 'assumes' to be the true way to use the umbrella.

Moreover, by further stating that such umbrellas <em>"must be spread open in a corner until it is fully corrected and has become a true umbrella once again"</em> shows how the speaker thinks of wet umbrellas. The voice highlights how absurd anyone can be in thinking that there is something wrong with a wet umbrella.
