Answer: the correct answer is A. Sarcastic.

Explanation: In the poem "the Lady's Dressing Room" by  Jonathan Swift, the author depicts a woman grooming herself. She uses many ointments and creams and things that aren't so clean. The author uses sarcasm because if the woman were a beauty or a goddess, she wouldn't use so many ointments.

The correct answer is option A ("Sarcastic").

In this short excerpt from Jonathan Swift's poem "The Lady's Dressing Room", we have <u>a couple of clues</u> that clearly enough indicate a sarcastic tone.

Primarily, what I'm looking at is <u>the choice of words</u> from the author:

The woman is not being addressed as a simple human but rather a female deity or <u>goddess</u>. Her struggles (as large as they may seem to her), are somewhat dismissed or mocked by the poet considering that the lady is surrounded by luxury. The mention of <u>brocades</u> also points towards that tonal direction, given that it's a highly expensive fabric most commonly laced with gold or silver.


Hope this helps!

What is the last word of keesh? why did it require dignity and manhood to speak
stellarik [79]

Answer: The last word of Keesh was "It is not for a boy to know about witches, and I know nothing about witches. I only have means whereby I may kill an ice-bear with ease, that's all. It would be headcraft, not witchcraft".

In "The Story of Keesh" by Jack London, the people of the tribe did not believe that Keesh had hunt a large polar bear by himself, so they accused him and his mother of witchcraft. It required dignity and manhood for him to defend himself and speak against the elder hunters who disliked him.
