Question

read the excerpt from the storyteller. why werent there any flowers? because the pigs had eaten them all, said the bachelor promptly. the gardeners had told the prince that you couldnt have pigs and flowers, so he decided to have pigs and no flowers. there was a murmur of approval at the excellence of the princes decision: so many people would have decided the other way. how does the characterization of the children create satire? they are curious about what is in the garden. they are pleased to learn that the prince chooses pigs over flowers. they interrupt the bachelor just as much as they interrupt their aunt. they sometimes interrupt because they like the story they are being told.

Explanation:

Satire often uses humor, irony, etc. The children's behavior of interrupting the bachelor as much as they interrupt their aunt shows a lack of respect - a common satirical element of social norms. It mocks the idea of proper behavior in social settings.

Answer:

They interrupt the bachelor just as much as they interrupt their aunt.
