Question

What evidence supports the conclusion that "The Storyteller" uses satire to impart the theme that adults should

Answer 1

Answer:

B. "Oh, look at those cows!' exclaimed the aunt. Nearly every field along the line had contained cows or bullocks, but she spoke as though she were drawing attention to a rarity."

E. "The story began badly,' said the smaller of the small girls, but it had a beautiful ending.'

"It is the most beautiful story that I ever heard,' said the bigger of the small girl

Explanation:

The evidence that supports the conclusion that "The Storyteller" uses satire to impart the theme that adults should respect children's intelligence are options B and E.

This is because it shows how the aunt relates to the children as if they are not aware of the cows grazing on the field, even though they were everywhere for everyone to see.

Satire is used in the story to show how ineffective the aunt's method of teaching is on the children and her assumptions that the children are slow in understanding.
