Answer 1

The correct answer is B. It is an ironic attack on the people's lack of attention to services.The phrase "devoutly snore" is used to highlight the irony of people being so inattentive and asleep during church services, which are supposed to be places of devotion and reverence. The use of the word "devoutly" to describe their snoring emphasizes the contrast between their supposed piety and their actual behavior. This serves as an ironic critique of the people's lack of attention and reverence during church services.
