astra-53 [7]

Answer:

<u>He later served as the army's Commanding officer in Berlin, Germany, where his headquarters had formerly been occupied by the very Nazi leaders who had put his family in the camp and killed many of his family members.</u>

Explanation:

Irony is when what happened is not something that is expected. This means that the expected outcome of anything is so far from what actually happened, surprising the people.

Here, the word "delicious" is added to modify the 'irony'. By adding the word "delicious", the speaker seems to suggest the fact that the irony is something that both surprises yet makes him happy or even excited about it. And the "delicious irony" in the passage is <em>"his headquarters (in Berlin, Germany) had formerly been occupied by the very Nazi leaders who had put his family in the camp and killed many of his family members." </em>This ironic outcome seems to be both cathartic and painful for him.

Lee often uses humor in the telling of To Kill a Mockingbird. Explain one example of Lee's humor from the reading.
masha68 [24]

Answer and Explanation:

An example of humor that we can see in this book is reflected in many conversations between Atticus and Scout, especially when Jem says a very disrespectful word, to blacks, that he heard at school. At this moment, Atticus shows how the use of this word is improper, mainly in a school that should promote education. In that moment, humor is used, as Scout says that she shouldn't go to school, since that is where she is learning bad words.

Humor in this case is used sarcastically, criticizing people who encourage prejudice and outrage, when they should do the opposite
