Answer:

"Limericks are intended to give entertainment by making the listeners laugh. Part of that is to make the end syllables rhyme. Additionally, the words themselves even without their meaning should sound like its making fun of the subject. It is for these reasons that the priest changes the spelling of some words."

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows.
Ivahew [28]

The best revision of the statement "Children seem to like me, and I don't mind hanging out with them. It's pretty easy to keep them amused" is:

Children seem to like me, and it's pretty easy to work with them.

<em>This revision deletes the phrase "I don't mind hanging out with them", that phrase is not really necessary since it was already stated that children liked the person. It is logical that the person doesn't mind hanging out with someone who likes him/her. Also, the phrase "it's pretty easy to keep them amused" suggests that working with them is easy. At the end of the day, the key to work with children is being able to keep them amused, in other words, getting and keeping their attention. </em>

stealth61 [152]
The king and duke were merely con-men pretending to be royalty. They met in Huck's raft because they were running away from the authorities who discovered their con.

They were initially strangers but upon knowing that each was a conman. Both hatched a plan to con numerous people by staging a play like Romeo and Juliet.
