English
1 answer:
Anna11 [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Satire is a genre of literature and performing arts, usually fiction and less frequently in non-fiction, in which vices, follies, abuses and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit to draw attention to both particular and wider issues in society.

Which statement made by Abigail shows that she is not as harmless as she appears?
irakobra [83]

Hello there! the answer to your question would be B. "I can make you wish you had never seen the sun go down!"

In all the other options, they are mostly normal interactions that are definitely harmless. A is talking about her uncle praying. C and D are talking about her reputation in the village. Even though D seems to potentially have a stronger tone, B is still your best option, since Abigail is threatening whoever she's talking to, by saying "I can make you wish you had never seen the sun go down!", which shows she can put danger on another being.

I hope this helps, and have a great rest of your day! :)
