They are giving away necessities in order for the gift to function properly. No hair= nothing to comb, no watch= no use for watch fob.

Answer:

D Della sells her hair and receives hair combs as a gift. Jim sells his watch and receives a watch fob as a gift.

Explanation:

Irony refers to something that signifies the opposite that one intends. As a result, in "The Gift of the Magi," the irony is in the fact that neither Della nor Jim will be able to take pleasure in using each other's gifts, since Della sells her hair to buy a watch chain for her husband and Jim sells his watch to buy her hair combs.

Adam is taking a test in PE. The prompt for one question states:
Liula [17]
Hey there! :D

I think the most important thing to remember here is the structure of a thesis statement. 

Main idea- point- point- point. Each point represents like a paragraph of details. 

Also, the question stated that it was what you thought was the best sport, and explain the reasons. 

I wouldn't say "A". It doesn't have points. It's more of an opinion. It's better than any other sport. (superior) It's a statement, more than a thesis. 

"B" and "D" aren't about sports. A specific one was never mentioned. 

"C" is the best answer. The prompt asked what you thought was the best sport. If he said 'personally' or 'I think' that's fine. Plus, he had three good points in his thesis. Main idea: I think football is the best sport ever. Points: 'it is fun' 'you work as a team' and 'there's nothing more exciting than scoring the winning goal.' 

I hope this helps!
