First of all I would like to describe what irony is, this techtique is employed by authors who what to expose and criticize corruption or any other topic (individual or social) by using exaggerations it is not to make people laugh but to warn people about something Swift used irony in those lines to show he incompetence of Ireland's politicians and how tyranny they could be.

The author Illustrates how the political system of Ireland works (only serving the Wealthy at the expense of the masses)

I 100% need this. please help me so I can get it correct. ill even give brainliest.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

First, be sure the anecdote you have in mind is relevant to the context. If you are writing about dogs, for example, an anecdote about a cat is irrelevant. Ask yourself, “Why do I want to use this anecdote? What point does it illustrate?”

Next, consider these questions:

Who was involved in the story?

What happened?

When did it happen? Is this relevant?

Where did it happen? Is this relevant?

Explanation: that tells you how to write the paragraph.. here is an example paragraph:

(p.s do not copy this, try to use your own words for these paragraphs)

A female boss I worked under years ago didn’t like hiring young women, “They’re just going to get married and move away or have babies, and then we have to give them maternity leave,” she would say. This illustrates that women are sometimes also guilty of gender discrimination.

You can also use anecdotes to amuse or entertain. Not all anecdotes are serious! If something really funny happens to you today, you’ll tell your friends, won’t you? That’s an anecdote! Here’s one of my favorites:

My brother used to have an absolute obsession with answering the phone in time. He would get quite agitated if it stopped ringing before anyone picked up. One day, the phone started ringing while he was in the bathroom. He called out in a panicky voice, “Ring the phone! It’s answering!” The phone didn’t get answered. I was laughing much too hard for that!

hope this helps plz mark me brainliest

Which scenario is an example of irony?
Anettt [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option B. A tow truck sits stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire is irony.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Irony is a rhetorical device employed by writers or speakers to present a situation where contrary results of what is expected are obtained resulting in wry humour.

A tow truck is a vehicle provided with special equipment to pull damaged , illegally parked, or immovable vehicles in need of help to be either disposed of or dragged  to a place where they  can be repaired.  It is expected to be a savior carrying immobile vehicles to their destination which is most often a repair shop.

In the given situation, the tow truck is itself not able to ply on the road and is helplessly stranded on the roadside due to a flat tyre.  It is contrary to what is expected and is consequently amusing.  This is an example of irony.
