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."

It is sufficient to infer the context of a piece based purely on the title. True or false?
Semenov [28]

Answer:

This is FALSE.

Explanation:

Each piece of writing does have a title or sub-title. But, it is not correct to infer the context of the piece based purely on the title. Because the whole text would provide more detailed information on the given heading. It would elaborate different or related aspects of the given title.

So, to properly understand the whole writing, it is not correct to conclude the meaning of the writing depending solely on what the title is.
