Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

a. Both use humor to entertain an audience.

Explanation:

Satire is a method utilized by essayists to uncover and condemn stupidity and defilement of an individual or a general public, by utilizing humor, incongruity, distortion, or derision. It means to improve humankind by scrutinizing its imprudences and shortfalls. An essayist in a satire utilizes anecdotal characters, which represent real people, to expose and condemn their corruption.

Parable is a hyperbole, which displays a short story, regularly with an ethical exercise toward the end. You frequently have heard stories from your seniors, for example, The Boy Who Cried Wolf, and All is Vanity. These are anecdotes since they show you a specific good exercise. Parable is, actually, a Greek word, anecdote, which signifies "examination." It resembles a concise account or a well known fact that utilizes symbolism, simile, and metaphor, to demonstrate the moral lesson intended to be taught.

A group of related words that has both a subject and a predicate is called a(n)a. adverb.
b. clause.
c. phrase.
d. complex sentence.

Answers

The correct answer is b. a clause.

A clause is  a group of related words that contains both a subject and predicate. The subject can be a noun, a noun phrase, or a subject pronoun. The predicate is the part of the clause that contains the verb and gives information about the subject.

For example:

The children     went to school.

     subject            predicate
The correct answer is B. Clause.

Phrases don't have a predicate while a complex sentence requires multiple clauses to be connected. Adverbs are words that explain what the action in a sentence is like.
