Answer:

D. This voice highlights the absurdity of thinking that there is something wrong about a wet umbrella.​

Explanation:

Gabriel Garcia Marquez wrote "Uses and Abuses of the Umbrella" to present a humorous take on the importance and concept of the umbrella. The hilarious story delves into how the speaker 'assumes' to be the true way to use the umbrella.

In the given passage from the story, Marquez stated that "a wet umbrella is an accident, a barbarism, a spelling mistake". This is to say that there is no use for an umbrella that is wet. Moreover, by further stating that such umbrellas "must be spread open in a corner until it is fully corrected and has become a true umbrella once again" shows how the speaker thinks of wet umbrellas. The voice highlights how absurd anyone can be in thinking that there is something wrong with a wet umbrella.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
