<span>C. A talk-show audience is aware that a man's first love is hidden backstage as he confesses his wish to see her again.

Dramatic irony - think Drama class, on stage. Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something but not everyone involved does. In this case the audience knows about the girl backstage, but the man does not. 
Other types of irony: verbal irony - sarcasm, when someone says one thing, but means something else. Situational irony is when something unexpected happens.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The statement that identifies the cause and effect relationship is: The unionization of electricians causes Giuseppe D'Amico's difficulty in finding a job.

Explanation:

A cause and effect relationship can be presented when we see a sentence where one element causes the existence of another. Regarding the excerpt shown in the question above, we can see that Teresa's father is having a hard time finding a job as an electrician. That's because in America, electricians are union members and this prevents electricians without union members, like Teresa's father, from being hired. This shows that the unionization of electricians is the cause and the difficulty of finding a job is the effect.

What type of humorous device does Pope use in The (R ape) of the Lock?
topjm [15]

The answer is that the Pope used the reductio ad absurdum or mock-epic genre to weave humor into the poem, The R ape of the Lock. 
The mock-epic genre resembles the epic in that its central concerns are serious and often moral. Although it is the idea of its style,it deviates from the epic in the fact that the approach must now be satirical rather than earnest is symptomatic of how far the culture has fallen.
