Lastly, in lieu of these shifting scenes, came back the rude market-place of the Puritan settlement, with all the townspeople as

sembled and levelling their stern regards at Hester Prynne,—yes, at herself,—who stood on the scaffold of the pillory, an infant on her arm, and the letter A, in scarlet, fantastically embroidered with gold thread, upon her bosom! What is the effect of the underlined words in this excerpt?

Answer:

Is repetitive and argumentative.

Explanation:

The effect of the underlined words: -yes, at herself- is repetitive and argumentative at the same time. Since in saying "to herself" she is saying the same thing but in other words and at the same time, she argues and reinforces what she says so that she understands more what she means. By saying "to herself" leads the reader to what is being said about the person.

After reading the story, did you feel that a situation like the one in “The Cold Equations” could actually happen? Explain your
kiruha [24]
I think it could happen because the girl (don't remember their names sorry) snuck onto the ship where she wasn't supposed to go. Obviously if you do something wrong, no necessarily sneaking onto a spaceship, there are always consequences. The man did try to save her life, but there wasn't much he could do because it was too late for both of them to survive.

Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The reader knows that Mr. Pilkington is praising a  flawed and brutal system.

Explanation:

Dramatic irony is when the audience or readers know something about the scene and would expect it to happen which the characters in the story or scene seem to have no idea. The speech and behavior of the characters will contradict the upcoming event, which the readers or viewers can predict but not by the characters in the story.

In the given excerpt from chapter 10 from “Animal Farm” by George Orwell, we see Mr. Pilkington give a speech about how much he and his human friends have regarded the way Animal Farm was run by Napoleon. He is seen praising the brutal system that was the basis of how the farm was run and also promised that he along with his fellow humans will institute the same system in their own farms. And through his speech,<u> we as readers, know that Mr. Pilkington was praising a system that is both brutal and flawed. </u>
