7 0

Answer:

C. A tow truck sits stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire.  

Explanation:

In this case, irony refers to a situation in which the result is very different from the one anticipated by the reader. It is evidenced by the difference between appereance and reality.

Here a tow truck has a flat tire, it is ironic because those trucks are usually used to drag vehicles that suffered a malfunction away from the road. It is not serving it's purpose, it is in a situation where it's  primary function is the only one that can help it.

Why do you think it takes courage to achieve something? Explain your answer.(please put it in ace format)
Anni [7]
It takes courage to achieve something because you have to start it in the first place.

What if you had to jump off a diving board from a high level to win a bet? Or maybe sing or give a speech in front of a huge crowd if you were afraid of speaking in public? Getting good grades, graduating, asking a crush out.

All of these things are possible to accomplish, yet you need courage to achieve them because it’s scary to start if you’re afraid you might fail. You need courage to achieve them because of how hard it may get in the process.

Semenov [28]

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

Personification is the use of human actions/movements in a non-living or non-human object or thing.

Irony means the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

Hyperbole means the use of exaggeration in a sentence.

Ask yourself these:

"What does the sentence mean the most?"

"What word brings the sentence imagery?"

Why does Creon order Antigone to be killed?
klemol [59]

Answer:

She disobeyed his command and buried her brother.

Explanation:

As the text explains, “To bury the dead was a most sacred duty, not only to bury one's own, but any stranger one might come upon. But this duty, Creon's proclamation said, was changed in the cause of Polyneices to a crime. He who buried him would be put to death.” When Creon learns that Antigone has defied his order, he has her killed.
