Answer:

Explanation:

This question refers to Hector Hugh Munro's story "The Storyteller".

Three children travel with their aunt in a railway carriage. Bored by the long travel, the children keep asking the aunt whole bunch of usual children questions, but the aunt's answers don't satisfy the children's curiosity. She decides to tell them a story, but the kids find it boring and the moral of the story unoriginal.

The man traveling with them shares the same opinion on aunt's storytelling so he gives a try. He tells the story about a girl who was so good that she earned medals for that and was invited to a beautiful park where no other kid was ever allowed. In that park she was atacked by a wolf. She hides, but the wolf hears her medals clinking, finds her and eats her. Basically, the story tells that the girl wouldn't have been eaten hadn't she been so good.

The aunt is shocked by the moral of the story and shows jer disapproval with it in this excerpt.

Answer:

The aunt disapproves of the bachelor's story because she disagrees with the moral message it gives to the children.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

In the Age of Honey, people tasted the neighborhood where they lived. From a light orange-blossom flavor that is almost a perfume to dark buckwheat with a hint of soil and grain, honey tastes like local flowers. And that was only part of its appeal. Bees work very hard, and it is easy to see that a queen bee is surrounded by worker bees that protect and serve her. To the ancients, a beehive was perfect, for it brought a gift of sweetness to people while being a mirror of their lives—a king or queen served by loyal subjects.

Which is the authors’ purpose for writing this passage?
to persuade readers that honey can be made in all neighborhoods
to inform readers about the cultural and historical significance of honey
to inform readers that honey is made primarily from orange blossoms
to entertain readers about how the worker bee produces honey
