In the story, "The Pit and the Pendulum," The narrator constantly tries to save himself, but he never does and eventually gives up. As soon as he gives up on saving himself, someone else saves him instead. This would be situational irony where a situation turns out differently then as expected.

Hope this helps ya!

What is one key difference between the critical acclaim received by Edgar Allan Poe and that received by Stephen King?

svlad2 [7]

I'd say the correct answer is the second option. Because while he was alive, Poe lived in poverty because he couldn't earn enough writing poems and stories, he also had to get a job as a critic. Only after he died did people start realizing the importance of Poe's work. And King is still alive, and still popular, receiving numerous awards for many of his works.

Hi I'm learning English and I wanna know the difference among as long as, but, except and barring to refer to exception..

k0ka [10]

As long as isn't really used for exceptions.
Well, maybe in things like "You can have ice cream as long as you eat your veggies." Then it's a little like saying "You can have ice cream if you eat your veggies"

But
"You can have ice cream, but you need to eat your veggies first."

Except
"Everyone can have ice cream, except for Gally"

Barring
I'm not really sure about this one...

Um, I hope this helps!
