Answer:

B.Friendly as a rabid dog

Explanation:

Verbal irony is a type of irony that relies on the speaker making a contradictory utterance. It occurs when the speaker says something which is contradictory to what he actually means. However, it is an intentional contradiction. In this case, he author wants to talk about something "friendly," but he uses the image of a rabid dog, which is contradictory and unexpected.

Does disobedience and rebellion promote social progress
WINSTONCH [101]

It would really depend what the cause is and if the gov is in favor or against it that causes you to rebel against it. For example: Native African Americans had no rights when they lived in the US before the 1950s because they were formerly slaves. Due to the lack of rights and discrimination they fought until the government gave them the same rights as whites.
