English
1 answer:
bogdanovich [222]3 years ago
8 0

The Ransom of Red Chief by O. Henry is filled with irony as a plan to kidnap and boy and hold him for ransom goes terribly wrong. ... The reader and Sam can see that the boy is still there as Bill apologizes for giving up the ransom. Situational irony is when the opposite of what you expect to happen occurs.

Any quotation taken word for word from a source must be enclosed in quotation marks and cited. This
densk [106]

<span>B. direct quotation.</span><span>

Have you no shame sir," he said, his eyes narrowing."
The quotation marks must be before the word “Have” and after the word “sir” and since this is in question form, a question mark must also be placed after the word sir and before the quotation mark. This is quoted because this is a verbatim question of the subject. The rest are descriptions of person asking the question. No quotation must be put at end of the sentence. All in all, the sentence is:</span> “Have you no shame sir?” he said, his eyes narrowing.

What does judge Danforth man when he says: Postponeent (of the trials). Now speaks a floundering (showing confusion or doubt) On
bixtya [17]

Answer:

The meaning of what Judge Danforth said in the above question can be coined from the previous statement he made, which says:

<em>"I will not receive a single plea for pardon or postponement. Them that will not confess will hang. Twelve are already executed; the names of these seven are given out, and the village expects to see them die at dawn..."</em>

Explanation:

This means that as a result of the twelve that have been executed already, postponement  will result in partiality on the part of the executed ones.

Also, the villagers that have received the names of the seven waiting for execution will conclude that the Judge is bias and partial.

Therefore, the Judge's refusal, seemed rational since many others have already been executed. It will seem unjust if those incarcerated and who have been found guilty are allowed to live. Such an action will most certainly result in outrage by the villagers,  families and associates of those already executed.
