I think it might be B if not sorry
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
In Angela’s Ashes, which sentence in the excerpt does the author most likely use to express humor? Question options:
a) “‘Do you want to know why I’m in the Fever Hospital?’”
b) “‘Especially you, Francis, after thousands of boys prayed for you at the Confraternity.’”
c) “Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa.”
d) “She tells me I better not get the notion she’ll be running up to this part of the world every time I have a little pain or a twinge.”
Answer:
I believe the best option to be letter c) “Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa.”
Explanation:
Irish author Frank McCourt has filled his memoir "Angela's Ashes" with humor and anecdotes of his childhood. In chapter VIII, Frank is hospitalized. He is constantly trying to communicate with Patricia, another hospitalized kid who has books with poems that delight Frank. When he is about to find out what happened to the Highwayman and his lover, the nurse comes in and yells, "I told ye there was to be no talking between rooms. <u>Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa." This line is quite humorous for the way it addresses people and diseases. It's as if Frank and Patricia are no longer people, as if they have become the diseases they have. However, diseases don't talk; it is the sick people who do.</u>
Answer:
1. Social media is fake.
2. Social media can lead to stress and anxiety.
3. Social media can allow people to become victims of online harassment, cyber bullying, and solicitation.
Explanation:
1. Social media is fake. People use filters, and you never see the behind the scenes. When they post something that may make you jealous, don't be. People on social media only post things that make them look good, and don't post the others. Don't believe everything you see, because they could be as insecure as you are (if you are insecure).
2. Social media can lead to stress and anxiety. Social Networking states, “31% of teens who use social media have fought with a friend because of something that happened online.” (procon.org). This proves that social media can ruin your relationships with others, which can give you a lot of stress. Another article Social Networking states,“Students who used social media while studying scored 20% lower on tests…” (procon.org) This demonstrates that social media can be very addictive and can lead to bad grades.
3. Social media can allow people to become victims of online harassment, cyber bullying, and solicitation. Although you may not be getting bullied in person, social media allows someone to bully you through a screen easily. Sometimes, the person bullying you could be someone across the globe. So, there would be a higher chance of you getting bullied with social media than without it.
