Question asked:Stories generally provide entertainment, but some have morals embedded in them. In such cases, the writer’s purpose is to 1( a. entertain / b. pacify / c. instruct / d. chide ) the audience, not just enthrall them. These stories are also known as 2( a. frame / b. didactic / c. comic / d. deceptive ) tales.

Answer number 1: is C. Instruct

Answer number 2: is B. Didactic

Answer 2

The correct answers are:

1) "instruct"

2) "didactic"

Step-by-step explanation:

The verb "to instruct" means to teach something, in this case, the objective of these stories is to indirectly teach morals through a fictional story.

These stories are called "didactic" since they want to teach morals as main focus.

Options "comic, deceptive, and frame" are incorrect as they do not enlighten about standards of good and right.
