Read the excerpt from The Diary of a Young Girl.We started off immediately the first day sewing curtains. Actually, you can hardly call them that, since they're nothing but scraps of fabric, varying greatly in shape, quality and pattern, which Father and I stitched crookedly together with unskilled fingers. These works of art were tacked to the windows, where they'll stay until we come out of hiding.Which portion of the excerpt best supports the idea that Anne has a sense of humor?
Answer
A
“where they'll stay until we come out of hiding”
B
“which Father and I stitched crookedly together with unskilled fingers”
C
“These works of art were tacked to the windows”
D
“We started off immediately the first day sewing curtains”
Explanation
Anne humorously calls the roughly sewn curtains “works of art,” even though she has just described them as scraps stitched together crookedly. The contrast between the poor-quality curtains and the grand phrase “works of art” shows her sense of humor. Therefore, the best choice is “These works of art were tacked to the windows.”
