The correct answer is A. Abrasive humor

Explanation:

The satire is about ridiculizing of certain behaviors, vices or negative features in a society, this aims at criticizing the negative aspects display by a person, group of people of the society itself and can take place in texts, plays, and any other literary or artistic works. For doing this satire does not produce direct or blatant judgment or criticism, instead, it relies on the exaggeration of behaviors and attitudes that might seem humorous but whose main purpose is to criticize socials aspects while entertaining to the audience. Because of this, in this common satire and satirical works including writings use a type of humor that can be classified as abrasive, considering the actions and language are exaggerated and the humor and resources used are the opposite of subtle or implicit humor or critic.

Which excerpt from "Hills Like White Elephants" provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The excerpt that provides the most details about the main characters' lives outside the railway station is:

D. "He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."

Explanation:

"Hills Like White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway is a short story revolving around the conflict between the two main characters. <u>They are a couple - apparently, unmarried -, and she is pregnant. However, their lifestyle will be greatly affected if she has the child. They live an easy life, comprised mainly of traveling and drinking, as the excerpt reveals:</u>

<em><u>"He did not say anything but looked at the bags against the wall of the station. There were labels on them from all the hotels where  they had spent nights."</u></em>

<u>The passage above reveals they travel a lot in each other's company. We do not know much about their lives besides that revelation - what their professions are, why they have the means to travel so much, etc.</u>

She is tired of such a life. She sees it as meaningless, pointless. He, on the other hand, does not want to be disturbed or concerned by the existence of a child. He defends the idea that they are happy the way they are, and that nothing should change.

mr_godi [17]

In the story called, “The Monkey’s Paw,” the author, W.W Jacobs, uses foreshadowing to add suspense. When Mrs. White asks Sergeant Major if any one else made a wish he says, “Yes. I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for death." The author also uses foreshadowing when Mrs. White jokes and says to wish for four arms Sergeant Major "with a look of alarm on his face," catches Mr. White's arm. 'If you must wish,' he said gruffly, 'wish for something sensible.'" Foreshadowing is also used when Sergeant Major is telling his feelings about the monkey’s paw. It states, “‘Pitch it on the fire again like a sensible man.’” Here he is warning Me. White of the consequences if he makes a wish. From this dialogue I readers can infer that something bad is going to happen.
