To determine what the aunt in "The Story-Teller" finds improper about the bachelor's story, we need to analyze the details of the story. In this case, we can refer to the text of "The Story-Teller" by Saki (H.H. Munro).
In the story, the aunt is telling a moralistic story to the children, emphasizing the importance of being well behaved and well-mannered. She stresses that good behavior is always rewarded. However, the bachelor interrupts her story and tells a completely different tale, where the main character, Bertha, being overly well-mannered, obedient, and virtuous, faces unfortunate consequences.
By examining the story's content and the reactions of the aunt and the children, we can conclude that what the aunt finds improper about the bachelor's story is that it makes fun of Bertha's goodness (Option 1). The aunt believes in the conventional moral notions of rewards for virtue, but the bachelor's story challenges this idea by presenting a situation where virtue does not always lead to desired outcomes.
