Answer:
Disobeying his aunt
.
Asking questions about everything
.
Commenting on the two stories he is told.
Explanation:
Satire is a literary tool that writers use to provide humor, and even at times a 'truth-behind-the scene' comment which may be what the writer wants to expose but didn't want to admit directly. It becomes a tool for the writer to express the things that may seem hard to address.
In H. H. Munro's short story "The Storyteller", Cyril is the small boy traveling with his aunt and two sisters. And through this young character, the author uses the tool of satire to bring into focus some of the themes he wants to express or bring to light himself. And by exaggerating the character of Cyril, he allows the readers to get a sense of what the aunt is like. Cyril becomes the tool through which some issues were raised, when he disobeyed his aunt when he is told not to smack the cushion, asks numerous questions unnecessarily, and even commenting on both the stories that were told to him. He even openly proclaimed <em>"It is the only beautiful story I have ever heard"</em>, indirectly commenting on the story-telling ability of his aunt.
Thus, the <u>correct answers are the first, second, and last options</u>.

This reasoning is not correct. In this example, Bertie's boss convinces him of breaking the law in order to fulfill his order. Bertie does so, even though he is aware that this is a wrong action (this is clear from his surprised reaction and reluctance to carry out the order). However, even though Percy asked him to perform the action, Bertie would still be considered to be guilty due to the fact that he was ultimately the one who carried out an action that was illegal and dangerous.
