Answer:
The meaning of irony is the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect. In 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry' irony is represented when Jim gives Della the combs after she sold her hair. The story states," For there were the combs -- the special set of objects to hold her hair that Della had wanted ever since she saw them in a shop window. Beautiful combs, made of shells, with jewels at the edge --just the color to wear in the beautiful hair that was no longer hers. They cost a lot of money, she knew, and her heart had wanted them without ever hoping to have them. And now, the beautiful combs were hers, but the hair that should have touched them was gone." This persents irony because she sold her hair, so she couldn't use the combs she longed for.

Answer:
The question is not complete, as none of the clauses in the sentence are underlined, however, I will give you the type of each of the two clauses:
<u>Because he ran:</u> (subordinate clause)
<u>he was able to catch the bus.</u> (independent clause)
Explanation:
A clause is a part of a sentence, and a clause contains a verb.
Subordinate/dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone when isolated from a sentence, and still make complete sense, instead, they help to give further meaning to the main/independent clause. In this case "Because he ran", is not a complete thought on its own, as it leads to asking the question "so what?"
Independent/main clauses can stand alone and still make sense. In this example "he was able to catch the bus" can stand alone and still make sense.
