Answer:
An essay is an explanation on a "specific topic". It consists of three parts:
=> Introduction (1 paragraph)
=> Body (2 or more paragraphs)
=> Conclusion (1 paragraph)
To write an essay, we'll first introduce the topic. After moving to the body, we have to explain the topic in a detail. After we are done with the body, we conclude the topic.

the answer would be A SATIRE because satire means the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
Not having the excerpt here, I can only help you to find the answer. Mood is the feeling you get when you read the passage. Foreboding is fearful or apprehensive. Welcoming is or can be joyful and accommodating or making someone feel comfortable in their surroundings. Sorrowful is sad or mournful. Optimistic is positive, hopeful, and confident about your future. As you read the passage, which of these are you feeling or closely matches your feelings.
