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.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Jim clearly thinks it is better to bide his time and try to convince his slave owners to let him free. The narrator of this text doesn't believe it is worth the time kissing up to the slave masters as that submissive behavior is what owners are expecting anyway and ultimately hope to achieve through the fear tactics and whipping. The narrator believed the only way to achieve freedom was to take it. It seems quite apparent that they cannot stand to stay where they are. They've developed such a sense of dignity that they would rather risk punishment than do nothing.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer: it means an analogy is like a solution, but isn’t always the best solution or the most accurate.

Explanation: It means an analogy is a quick comparison but in the end it’s not the best solution. An analogy is like an instant coffee( best solution) , it can wake you up, but it isn’t the real thing( it’s not always so real in reality). What’s seems real on paper might not always be accurately real in reality. An analogy feels like an instant solution, it makes you feel you are “right” but it isn’t always the best solution or the most accurate.
