Answer 6

Have you ever considered why we walk on a walkway, but we do not park in a parkway, drive in driveway, or run on a runway? Or why the plural of goose is geese, but the plural of moose is not “meese”?

We can ship something, but it arrives by truck. We fill out paperwork by filling it in, and we can get lost in our online finds.

If we look to our professions, we find more contradictions! A builder builds, a teacher teaches, a baker bakes; strangely, a chef does not “chef.” A police officer polices, but a firefighter does not fire.

A good pun is funny, while a bad pun is “punny.”

There is no ham in hamburger, no straw in strawberries, and—thank goodness—no dogs in hot dogs. (At least one hopes!)

We can be so tired that we sleep for a century, or we can be so wired that we do not sleep a wink. Our feathers can be ruffled when someone attacks us, or we can stick a proverbial feather in our hat when we are happy.

When we play football, the foot is very rarely permitted to touch the ball. If we used a spike in volleyball, the ball would be no more. Moreover, where are the crickets in cricket?

One can have adult children, be brilliantly dull, or love fresh sour cream!

“Bad” can be good or, quite logically, it can be bad.

Either way, we can comfortably say my attempt at humor is cleverly bad.

Answer 7

well i see the text as a pun. The author is clearly trying to be funny by doing puns. And in your choices, the only the one that's a pun is A.

does that help?
