Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

Then Miss Watson she took me in the closet and prayed, but nothing come of it. She told me to pray every day, and whatever I asked for I would get it. But it warn't so. I tried it. Once I got a fish-line, but no hooks. It warn't any good to me without hooks. I tried for the hooks three or four times, but somehow I couldn't make it work. By and by, one day, I asked Miss Watson to try for me, but she said I was a fool. She never told me why, and I couldn't make it out no way.

In at least 150 words, explain how Twain uses satire to develop theme in this excerpt.

    Answer:In this story miss watson isnt talking about praying for objects. Shes talking about praying when your life isnt going so well or no one is listening to you so you prey. you pray for someone to listen and you pray for the bad to go away. But this boy thought she was saying that if you pray for an object, it will appear and you wont have to pray anymore. The satire of this story is the kid though miss watson was telling him to pray for objects but she was telling him to pray for hope
