Answer:

D. To make social calls.

Explanation:

The short story "The Open Window" by Saki a.k.a. H. H. Munro is about the main character Framton Nuttel and his retreat to the countryside. The story is a hilarious yet horrific experience for Nuttel who became the latest victim of the playful niece, Vera's love of storytelling.

Framton Nuttel has been advised by his doctor to not exert himself mentally. In a bid to cure his nervous condition, he had gone to the countryside to relax and calm himself. And to make himself acquainted with the neighbors of that retreat, his sister had written letters of introduction to help him in his social calls.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

C. It emphasizes a series of points made by the speaker.

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is a literary device which is a statement in the form of a question used to certify a point and does not elicit a reply. This device is used to provide more clarity to the speaker's central idea and emphasize the value points that he wishes to highlight. It is the central question which the speaker wants the readers' focus to shift upon and thus dramatically raises this statement or question to punch up his point and make it stand out completely and persuade the readers as he (the speaker) wants them to spend some time in thoughtful contemplation .
