Answer :

Cambridge English Dictionary defines "satire" as "a way of criticizing people or ideas in a humorous way, especially in order to make a political point, or a piece of writing that uses this style."

The following phrase from the passage best helps the reader to identify the passage as a satire :

He has been eight years upon a project for extracting sunbeams out of cucumbers.

This passage has been taken from part three of Gulliver's Travels. It is a satire based on the Royal Society's scientific and experimental approach at the time of the publication of Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels."

The correct answer is "It is best described as an anecdote".

We consider an anecdote to be a personal account or retelling of a particular event or incident. The key word here is "personal". In the example given, we clearly see how <u>the point of view is from the protagonist of a certain personal experience he had and the way he felt about it, constituting it as an anecdote.</u>

We don't know for a fact Utopians don't care about riches, because we're only getting a single man's experience which in addition, cannot be proven.

An analogy recquires some sort of strong comparisson of metaphor that isn't really present in this excerpt.


Hope this helps!
