This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Blessed are the children who always eat the same flavor of ice cream or always know beforehand what kind they will want. Such good children should be quarantined from those who want to "wait and see what flavors there are."
What is the author's purpose for including this portion of "How to Eat an Ice-
Cream Cone"?
A. To inquire about the audience's favorite ice cream flavor
B. To entertain the audience through his use of humor
C. To inform the audience about the value of ice cream
D. To persuade the audience to think about flavors in advance
Answer:
The author's purpose is:
B. To entertain the audience through his use of humor
Explanation:
The passage we are analyzing here is clearly not a serious one. It is supposed to be funny and witty, especially because choosing an ice cream flavor is not a grave matter at all. Not only does the author make a big deal out of it, he goes to the extreme of saying children who know what flavor they want should be quarantined from those who do not. It's as if not knowing the flavor is a contagious disease! Clearly, the author is just making fun of how annoying it may be to wait for a child to decide what flavor he wants.
