A limerick is a piece that follows the AABBA format. That means that lines one and two rhyme with each other, three and four rhyme with each other, and line five rhymes with the first two. So, an example of a limerick about the ocean would be,
“There’s nothing that’s quite like the sea
With blue water deep as can be
All the shells on the sand
In the sun getting tanned
Nothing else could be better to me”
because sea, be, and me rhyme, and so do sand and tanned.
Answer:
The authors prove Feldman's success by describing the size of his business.
Explanation:
At the end of the excerpt, the authors talk of how Feldman threw off the "shackles of cubicle life". <u>He went from being an employee in a cubicle to being a successful self-employed man. To prove his success, the authors provide us with numbers that show the size of his business: </u>
<u><em>Within a few years, Feldman was delivering 8,400 bagels a week to 140 companies and earning as much as he had ever made as a research analyst.</em></u>
<u>Being able to deliver that amount of bagels to that number of companies can only mean his business is big. He'd need to have several people working under him as well as a quite decently sized infrastructure to do it.</u>
