This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
In Angela’s Ashes, which sentence in the excerpt does the author most likely use to express humor? Question options:
a) “‘Do you want to know why I’m in the Fever Hospital?’”
b) “‘Especially you, Francis, after thousands of boys prayed for you at the Confraternity.’”
c) “Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa.”
d) “She tells me I better not get the notion she’ll be running up to this part of the world every time I have a little pain or a twinge.”
Answer:
I believe the best option to be letter c) “Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa.”
Explanation:
Irish author Frank McCourt has filled his memoir "Angela's Ashes" with humor and anecdotes of his childhood. In chapter VIII, Frank is hospitalized. He is constantly trying to communicate with Patricia, another hospitalized kid who has books with poems that delight Frank. When he is about to find out what happened to the Highwayman and his lover, the nurse comes in and yells, "I told ye there was to be no talking between rooms. <u>Diphtheria is never allowed to talk to typhoid and visa versa." This line is quite humorous for the way it addresses people and diseases. It's as if Frank and Patricia are no longer people, as if they have become the diseases they have. However, diseases don't talk; it is the sick people who do.</u>
Repulsive. The others wouldn't fit at all. Repulsive is the best replacement for abominable.
The date in Winston's diary is significant, as the lack of records caused him to lose memories of the past, as shown in option A.
<h3>Why is the date so significant?</h3>
- Winston is tired of the party's manipulation, which doesn't let people keep memories, know the date and not even have records that prove situations.
- By putting the date in the diary, Winston shows his first act of rebellion, where he repudiates the lack of freedom, knowledge, and registration.
- He doesn't even know if the date is correct, but he needs to position himself and create a document that proves his actions from then on.
So Winston knew that the party would be challenged through his notes, which is the first step towards freedom.
