4. "Oh, a sweater! That was nice Bobby," said Janet after opening the present. Janet thought the
sweater was hideous, but she appreciated her boyfriend's effort. Still, she exchanged it for
some boots the first chance she got. She figured that Bobby would want her to be happy. A
week later Bobby made reservations for two at the nicest restaurant in town. "Janet, I want to
take you somewhere special." He said. "I have good news to tell you. Wear that sweater that I
got you. It'll be perfect." Janet didn't know how to react, "Um... I don't think that sweater quite
matches these boots I want to wear. Is it cool if I just wear it another time?" Bobby huffed,
"You know, Janet, that sweater was expensive. The least you could do is act like you
appreciate it." Janet saw no other option but to agree to wear the sweater, so she did. Now she
was in a pickle.
Which type of irony is used?
State the reason for your response.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The type of irony used in the excerpt is dramatic irony.

Explanation:

Dramatic irony is related to a situation in which readers know and understand something that the characters themselves don't. In this case, readers know Janet is in trouble for agreeing to wear the sweater. We know she no longer has it because she exchanged it for the boots. As a matter of fact, we know she hated the sweater when she got it, and lied to Bobby saying she loved it.

Bobby, however, is clueless to all that. He believes Janet still has the sweater, and is upset that she does not seem to appreciate the expensive gift. Bobby has no idea of the "pickle" Janet is in because of his demand. That is why this is an example of dramatic irony.

Explanation:

The theme expressed in this paragraph is that even wise people do foolish things at times. those who sacrifice for others are great people. sacrificing one’s most prized possessions is foolish. wise people are often those with the fewest possessions.

Answers

Answer:

Those who sacrifice for others are great people.

Explanation:

This question refers to the following paragraph from The Gift of the Magi, a story written by O. Henry:

And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest.

This story tells about Della and Jim, a young and poor married couple. On Christmas Eve, they buy each other gifts despite having very little money. Della sells her hair to buy a platinum pocket watch chain for Jim, and Jim sells his pocket watch to buy a set of ornamental combs for Della. Despite receiving gifts they cannot use, Jim and Della realize how much they are willing to sacrifice for each other and how priceless their love really is.

This is what the given paragraph tells us - that those who sacrifice for each other are great people. It doesn't matter that they don't have much money - Jim and Della love each other and that's all that matters. There is nothing foolish about that.

Answer:

it c those who sacrifice for others are great people.

the amount of snowfall
and the number of voters
the number of doctors
and the number of nurses
correlation without causation
correlation with causation
the number of high school seniors
and high school graduates

Answers

Answer:

✔️correlation without causation ➡️ the number of doctors and the number of nurses.

✔️correlation with causation➡️ the number of high school seniors and high school graduates.

Explanation:

The first show doctors and nurses. Actually, doctors and nurses correlate because they are medical personnels and are found in health centers but here, there is no causation among them.

The second talk about the number of high school students and the number of high school graduates. Here, there is a correlation; they are all from high school. But the causation here is that the number of high school seniors determine the number of high school graduates. Therefore, as the number of high school seniors increases, the number of high school graduates increase too.

Correlation without causation talks about the inability to clearly find a cause-and-effect relationship that exists between two variables just on the basis of an observed correlation between them. While in correlation with causation, one can find a cause-and-effect relationship that actually exists between the two variables.

Read the excerpt from "At School."

The children became Americanized much faster than their parents. Often this caused painful conflicts in immigrant families. A gap appeared between the children and their parents. The parents clung to Old World customs and beliefs. The kids spoke English all day with their friends. They thought in American terms. More than anything else, they wanted to be accepted as equals in their adopted land.

Which other detail best supports the idea that children became comfortable in America more quickly than their parents?

When they left school, they looked, talked, and acted just like other American kids.
During hard times, kids had to drop out of school early. In the days before World War I, it was an accomplishment to finish grammar school.

Answer:

D. The number of large zebra mussels in the Hudson River has unexpectedly gone down in recent years, but scientists will continue to study the river to understand the invasion’s changing impact​.

Explanation:

The main idea of the article Long-Term Monitoring of the Hudson River is that the number of large zebra mussels in the Hudson River has unexpectedly gone down in recent years, but that the scientists will continue to study the river to understand the invasion’s changing impact​.

The text tells us about the changes occurring in the Hudson River ecosystem. There was an invasion of large zebra muscles, which caused the population of zooplankton to drop. However, recently, the size and the lifespan of the zebra muscles decreased, which led to the growth of the zooplankton population. The scientists don't have the answers to all of the questions that arise from this phenomenon, so they will continue to study the river to understand it better.

Their leader, Cronuswhose mother was Earth and whose father was the Skysat high and mighty above all as the ruler of the world and king of the heavens. Cronus greatly enjoyed his powerful position. He did everything he could to make sure that no one would ever take his place. His son Zeus, though, longed to become king. Zeus challenged Cronus to a war, and Cronus accepted.2Zeus defeated his father and became the new ruler of the heavens. His first task was to punish the Titans for opposing him. He sent most of the giant warriors away from the earth. Zeus had a special punishment, however, for the Titan warrior Atlas, who was known for his bravery and strength.3You have a heavy burden to bear, Atlas, said Zeus, for as I place this pillar on your shoulder, you must support the heavens forever.4So Atlas took up his new role, holding the weight of the heavens on his shoulders. As he stood, he wondered how he would ever escape his terrible fate. As luck would have it, one day he received a visit from the young warrior Hercules, who needed his help.5 Atlas, I am on an important mission, Hercules explained. If I complete ten great tasks for my new master, I will be made into a god. But I am told you are the only one who can help with my next task. I must steal the golden apples from the garden of Hera, Zeus wifethe one guarded by the dragon with one hundred heads.6As Atlas crouched on the ground under the weight of the heavens, he started to form a plan.7 I know just how to get the apples, he told the warrior, and I would be glad to help. But first Ill need for you to take the weight of the heavens while Im gone. So the two transferred the heavens onto Hercules shoulders and Atlas ran off to collect the apples, amazed at his newfound freedom.8Atlas collected the golden apples quickly, and when he returned, he laid them at Hercules feet. The warrior was overjoyed.9 Your joy will be short, Atlas told him, for I do not intend to hold the heavens any longer. The burden is now your own.10 Alas, Atlas, you have fooled me, Hercules admitted sadly. Ill accept my fate, but I wonder first if you might help me put some padding on my shoulders where the pillar must rest. You see, Im not as strong as a giant, and I need some extra help holding all of this weight. Might you hold the heavens for me while I arrange the padding?11Atlas agreed and took on the weight once more. Then he watched as Hercules scooped up the apples and scampered away, calling thanks over his shoulder as he disappeared from Atlass view.What is a possible theme of "Atlas's Great Fate"?
