Vonnegut uses satire to expose which societal
Tasya [4]

Answer:

I believe it's the last one.

Explanation:

One needs to look now farther than the first paragraph to realize that Vonnegut's tale is laced with irony and satire.  The strongest hint is when he mentions that there are over 100 ammendments in the Constitution.  All these ammendments are designed to make society "perfect."  Later on George and his wife Hazel are discussing how George's handicaps, the bags of birdshot tied to his legs, are terribly inconvenient and painful.  Hazel suggests George break a law and remove the bags since he isn't competing against anyone at home.  George replies that if he broke the law so would others and they'd end up right back in the "Dark Ages".  These examples depict there is no such thing as a perfect society.  Equality does not bring about perfection and competition is essential for a thriving economy.  In every society there are winners and losers.  

Sorry if i'm wrong.

Which sentence has an inappropriate shift in verb tense? O Miguel will have traveled to ten countries by the time he turns seven
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

O Chloe's whole family laughs whenever she told the funny story.

Explanation:

The verb "laughs" is in present-tense. It is happening now, at this moment. That means that the family is laughing right now.

However, the other verb in the sentence, "told," is in past tense. It has happened some time in the past. Using two verbs in different points in time together to describe a single situation, like this one, is an inappropriate shift in verb tense. How is the family laughing right now when she told the story a while ago?
