One example of dramatic irony comes when the old soothsayer visits the King. Oedipus ridicules the man because he's blind, and Tiresias in a fit of anger tells the king that though he can see he is "blind" to the truth. When Oedipus becomes blind, he finally realizes the truth of the man's words. Irony is also to be found in the fact that it is the blind man who truly sees.

This is ironic, because Oedipus confessed what really happened to Lauis.

When analyzing an argument, which elements should you focus on most? Select three options.
timofeeve [1]
Claim, Reasons,& Evidence


Explanation: Analyzing the Claim is the most important element about the use language in this way is to make claims (true or false) about some state of affairs in the world. One argument is as valid argument only if some of the propositions (the claims) are asserted as supporting the truth of another of the propositions (the conclusion). Those supporting arguments can only be valid if they follow a reasonable structure, with facts and evidences. Because those are the only tools we have to access and dialogue about the reality that surrounds us.

Which of the following is one of the three main guidelines for writing?
viva [34]
<span>The correct answer is D stick to your subject. By sticking to your subject, you will essentially be writing with the purpose of upholding your thesis, or argument, which is the most important aspect of a paper. Option A is incorrect because this depends on the piece you're writing. For example, if you're writing a short story, then a description based on one of your senses would be excellent imagery. However, if you're writing an argument paper, it would be better to offer a description based on reputable sources. B and C are both incorrect, because you will want to include relevant details. You shouldn't take away details that would support your thesis, and you shouldn't add irrelevant details that would take away from your argument.</span>
