A paradox is something that contradicts itself. An allegory is a story used to reveal a hidden image. A hyperbole is something that is <span>exaggerated and isn't meant to be taken literally. Irony is something more humorous and is when events contradict what somebody was expecting or believed. Knowing this, what do you think would be better? Try to read again and look for clues. If you look through, you might be able to tell it is giving off a humorous vibe, I would go for irony, but I might be wrong. Hope I am able to help you! :)</span>

99 PT English 2 Help FLVS: Julius Caesar Help:
krek1111 [17]
<span> I feel that the Antony speech maybe would've been more moving.  <span>First off, the murder of Caesar was a traumatizing one (they stabbed him like twenty seven times or somthing). I would've been on the conspirators sides if they haven't done it so brutally. IT seemed as if though they did it out of their own pleasure. Who stabs someone <em>twenty seven </em>times? </span> Brutus's speech discusses how he loved Caesar (even though he stabbed him, again, twenty seven times) and how he did it for the good of Rome. With an ambitious ruler like Caesar, Rome would've become slaves to him. However, Antony's speech says how he loved Caesar like all of Rome and how he had helped all of them and how Brutus was a "honorable man" (sarcasm ). I wouldn't have been moved by Brutus's speech because i had KNOWN what had happened during the murder. I witnessed it. And how different it was from out of love for Rome. It seemed more like out of hatred for Caesar.  </span>

Review the narrative "snake story" and answer the question below: what clues does the author give that the snake is not a real t
Serggg [28]

In particular, "snake story" Becky would not find the following to be a real treat:

She said proudly, "Not poisonous. She took back the book and walked over to her closet, saying, "It's an oak snake, Louie." Although not poisonous, I still won't take any chances.

This made it obvious that the snake was not dangerous and helped to explain it. However, we do recognize that the snake may have been; however, there was one indication from her little snake book that somehow this snake was not.

We must keep in mind that while Becky dealt with reptiles, she was more afraid of snakes in this situation. She wouldn't take any risks at all because of this. This would be an example of a snake that was not dangerous in any case.
