Answer: C) “I’m a person who couldn’t ride a public bus when she first arrived, and now I’m someone who watches tractor pulls on obscure cable channels.”

Explanation:

When using satire for humour, one uses ironies, reversals, exaggeration and ridicule in such a way that the situation is funny in its unexpectedness.

In this excerpt, the woman could not do such a simple American thing as riding a public bus but she is now so in tune with American culture that she watches tractor pulls on obscure cable channels.

This reversal in situation shows satire as when she first came to the US, she would not have expected to be doing such things as watching tractor pulls in the future.

<em>(B) Significant increase in mortality due to the spread of epidemic diseases.</em>

Explanation:

During the 14th century, many parts of Europe and Asia were completely ravaged by an epidemic plague called The Black Death. It was a form of bubonic plague caused by rats infected by bacteria.

More than half of the population of Europe was killed due to his plague, which immediately creates a shortage of labor. Shortage of labor, including agricultural ones, immediately meant that the living ones would receive a higher wage, to the consternation of the landowners who pushes for legislation that would return the status quo to how it was prior to the Black Death. This enrages the peasants who worked for them; manifesting in several revolts from May to November 1380.
