How is jims gift to della an example of irony

English

S_A_V [24]3 years ago

I don't remember the name of this story, but I believe I do remember which Jim and Della we are talking about XD I'm sorry if I'm wrong.

Jim's gift to Della is an example of irony because Jim sold what was dearest to him to buy something worth remembering for Della, and Della sold what was dearest to her to buy something for Jim. They both gave up one of the most worldly things which meant dearly to them, for the one they loved.

Hope I got it right? Is it by O. Henry, the author who's known for his surprise endings?

But for the timely ____ of the law enforcement agencies, there would have been a clash between the two communities​
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

But for the timely <em><u>arrival/ intervention</u></em> of the law enforcement agencies, there would have been a clash between the two communities.

Explanation:

In the given statement, the idea is that there was a possible clash between the two communities. But this confrontation was evidently thwarted by the enforcement agencies who managed to prevent the scene from unfolding into a huge brawl.

The use of the word <em>"but for the ....."</em> is meant to suggest "if not for ..." It is another way or form of saying "had not the enforcement agencies arrived on time".

Thus, the full statement will be <em>"but for the timely </em><u><em>arrival/ intervention</em></u><em> of the law enforcement agencies, there would have been a clash between the two communities".</em>
