Which of these sentences from the short story "the yellow wallpaper" by charlotte perkins gilman uses verbal irony?
vodomira [7]

Hi. You did not present the answer options, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours, which showed the answer options present in the attached image below. In that case, I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer:

It is so hard to talk to John about my case, because he is so wise, and because he loves me so.

Explanation:

Verbal irony refers to a moment in the text when the narrator or character speaks something contrary to reality. It is possible to see this in the sentence above because the narrator says that her husband loves her and cares a lot about her, but this is not true, since "The yellow wallpaper" tells the story of a woman who, when presenting symptoms of emotional exhaustion, was locked away by her husband who began to "paint" her as a crazy woman and acted in a way that made her more dependent and out of touch with reality.

In the "Interlopers" the setting contributes to the theme of the story by _____.
Naya [18.7K]

The correct answer is the second statement. In the "The Interlopers" by Saki (Hector Hugh Munro) the setting contributes to the theme of the story by showing that nature is unconcerned with human desires. In this short story Georg and Ulrich are continuing three years long dispute about the forest. The setting of the story is very important because the forest on the border of their lands doesn’t really has value, but represent their greed and yearning for dominance over one another. The forest on the night of the final dispute is described as a dreary place in which cries for help are only heard by wolves. This shows that nature is unforgiving and indifferent to man’s concerns (dispute over land).
