Question

The narrator's tone can best be described as _______.

• A. Satirical
• B. Harshly critical
• C. Wholly frustrated
• D. Mildly emotional
• E. Excessively casual

Answer 1

The correct option is A Satirical

We can determine the correct answer by using logic and eliminating the incorrect answers. The passage does not express any sense of frustration or emotion. Hence options C and D are incorrect. The tone of the author is also not relaxed or informal. Thus, option E is also not a valid answer. The passage uses irony to criticize people's vice and stupidity. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
