Which situation is most clearly ironic?
O A. A contest between two chess grand masters
B. A series of quick exchanges between two pals
O C. A sweater sale on the hottest day of the year
OD. A gazebo on a lonely hilltop during a huge storm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

O C. A sweater sale on the hottest day of the year.

Explanation:

Irony is a figurative language used to express one thing but the opposite happens. It is used mostly in humor and satirical expressions when one wants to criticize.

Among the given sentences, the most clearly ironic sentence is option C. Selling of sweaters is supposed to be an event seen during cold climates. So, selling warm clothes on a hot sunny day is ironic. It's the total opposite of what is the most probable scenario.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

LAST QUESTION PLZZ I CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE The federal government offers subsidized loans to students with ________.
A
financial need

B

C

D

Answers

Answer:

A). Financial Need

Explanation:

'Subsidized loans' are defined as the federal loans that are provided to financially weaker students for their undergraduate courses. Such loans do not accrue any kind of interest during or throughout the course as it is paid by the government and the student is liable to pay only the exact amount of the loan without any interest if they've remained enrolled in the school even for half the duration of the course. Thus, the students applying for such loans need to show their financial need to get the loan granted.

If I gave you a million dollars what would you do with it and why???

1 paragraph or more ( 5 or more complete sentences)

Answers

There are many things to do with 1 million dollars. Here is what I would do. First, I would donate 50,000 to charity. I would do this because I don't need 1 million dollars all to myself. The next thing I would do is spend some of it on things I need or even just want. I would do this because there are lots of important things humans need that I could buy. The last thing I would do is invest the rest of the money. I would do this because investing is a good way to earn more money that could go into college funds, retirement, and so much more. That is what I would do if you gave me 1 million dollars.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 1.

FLAVIUS. But wherefore art not in thy shop today?
Why dost thou lead these men about the streets?

COBBLER. Truly, sir, to wear out their shoes to get myself
into more work. But indeed, sir, we make holiday30
to see Caesar and to rejoice in his triumph.

MARULLUS. Wherefore rejoice? What conquest brings he home?
What tributaries follow him to Rome
To grace in captive bonds his chariot wheels?
You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!35
O, you hard hearts, you cruel men of Rome,
Knew you not Pompey? Many a time and oft
Have you climbed up to walls and battlements,
To towers and windows, yea to chimney-tops,
Your infants in your arms, and there have sat40
The livelong day, with patient expectation,
To see great Pompey pass the streets of Rome.
And when you saw his chariot but appear,
Have you not made an universal shout,
That Tiber trembled underneath her banks45
To hear the replication of your sounds
Made in her concave shores?
And do you now put on your best attire?
And do you now cull out a holiday?
And do you now strew flowers in his way,50
That comes in triumph over Pompey’s blood? Be gone!
Run to your houses, fall upon your knees,
Pray to the gods to intermit the plague
That needs must light on this ingratitude.

FLAVIUS. Go, go, good countrymen, and, for this fault55
Assemble all the poor men of your sort;
Draw them to Tiber banks, and weep your tears
Into the channel, till the lowest stream
Do kiss the most exalted shores of all.
[Exeunt all the Commoners]

What happened in Act One Scene 1 of Julius Caesar?

By William Shakespeare

After disagreeing with Caesar about how Rome should be run, Pompey was defeated in battle and assassinated. Just to be sure that Pompey's family and supporters couldn't come after him, Caesar chased Pompey's sons to Spain and defeated them in battle, too.

In Rome, the people are taking a holiday to celebrate the triumphant return of Julius Caesar.

"Introduction to Oedipus the King": Based on the following excerpt, with which of the following selections would the author most likely agree?
"The soul of drama, as Aristotle says, is plot—the action that demands and succeeds in engaging our attention so that we are no longer detached spectators but are involved in the progress of the stage events. Its outcome is important for us; in the greatest plots (and the plot of this play by Sophocles is perhaps the greatest) it is for the moment the most important thing in the world. But this engagement of the audience proceeds from an identification with the figures on stage, and this is not possible if we are made to feel that the action of the characters is not free, not effective. We expect to be made to feel that there is a meaningful relation between the hero’s action and his suffering, and this is possible only if that action is free, so that he is responsible for the consequences."
A) An identifiable hero must suffer the consequences of his or her own choices.
B) A drama does not necessarily need a hero in order to be effective.
C) A hero must be a good person in order for the audience to identify with him or her.
D) A hero must apologize for the wrongs he or she has committed.

Answers

Answer:

A) An identifiable hero must suffer the consequences of his or her own choices.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from Introduction to Oedipus the King, Sophocles wrote about how the success of the drama or any text is dependent on many elements of the story. While the plot is an important part of the drama, the consequences and understanding of the characters is also an important factor in the whole success of the story.

Likewise, the actions of the hero and how he reacts to any of those is also an important factor that makes the audience feel connected to the plot and the drama as a whole. On that note, the author seems likely to agree that an identifiable hero must be capable of suffering the consequences of his/her own decisions, whatever the outcome may be.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

D. By drawing a parallel between the rise of the "Extrovert Ideal" to the life of Dale Carnegie.

Answers

Answer: D. By drawing a parallel between the rise of the "Extrovert Ideal" to the life of Dale Carnegie.

Explanation:

In "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking" (2012), Susan Cain illustrates the rise of the "Extrovert Ideal" by comparing it to the life of Dale Carnegie, as described in his How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936).

According to Cain, Carnegie´s change from a farm boy to a sales man and then to a public speaking icon, is a good example of the move from a Culture of Character, prevalent until the 1920s, to a Culture of Personality, which is externally focussed as it gives more importance to appearances than to actions.
