Identify the key details that contribute to the irony in the poem ""Irony"" by Louis Untermeyer

swat32

Answer:

The key details that contribute to the irony in the poem are the following:

*The things that are considered no death, are the ones are not breathing or living.

*Even a pebble lies in a roadway, still it never experiences death. *No matter how grasses are cut, they still grow in the same place.

*Brooks, even though its flow is not that much, still you can see it come and go.

*Despite all these things that are not living, they do not fade nor die. But since a human is strong and wise, makes it the reason why it dies.

Explanation:

The irony in Louis Untermeyer's poem is given by the fact that those things that have no awareness of themselves, like pebbles and dust or sand and streams, live forever. Because that which is not alive cannot die. On the contrary, man, who is strong and intelligent, who is aware of himself and all the things around him and wants to live forever, eventually dies.

How does the ballerina’s attitude toward her kickboxing class change? Include examples from the last six stanzas of the poem to

Crank

Incomplete question.

Answered based on the full poem as found on the Georgia Online Formative Assessment Resource (GOFAR).

Answer:

she later came to develop an interest in her kickboxing class

Explanation:

For example, we notice in the earlier stanzas, Ballerina has a complacent attitude about her kickboxing class. This was evident when she said,

"My kickboxing class has as much grace as

A herd of stomping elephants.

Stampeding towards a watering hole.

It’s a far cry from warming up on the bar, "

However, a change in her attitude begins to occur in the last six stanzas of the poem. She begins to cooperate with her instructor, made evident when she said, "...But I force myself to bounce on the balls of my feet like he told me. " Furthermore, she finally came to appreciate the kickboxing class that she said,

"...when we finish and step back, the class breaks into applause.

I curtsy, laughing, and shake hands with my teacher,

Who has taught me so much more than I expected."

Use the drop-down menus to answer the questions about plot and characters in Animal Farm.

Cloud [144]

The book Animal farm, an allegorical story about the Russian Revolution (1917) and the Soviet Union, is about a group of farm animals who, dissatisfied with their human farmer, take over the farm. Their goal is that all the animals become equal and happy.

Which two animals often disagree with each other?

Answer: Napoleon and Snowball always disagree with each other.

Explanation:

Napoleon is a pig that becomes a farm leader after the Rebellion. In order to establish authority over other animals, Napoleon uses his nine attack dogs. Snowball, on the other hand, is intelligent and not as harsh as his enemy, Napoleon. Rather than intimidating other animals, Snowball is interested in winning their trust. While Napoleon represents Joseph Stalin, Snowball's character is based on Leon Trotsky.

Which animal does most of the heavy labor?

Answer: Boxer does most of the heavy labor.

Explanation:

Boxer's personal motto is ''I will work harder!" He is certainly hard-working and dedicated, and is convinced that every problem can be solved through hard work. Boxer is portrayed as powerful but naive, and his character is an allegory for Russian working-class that contributed to the establishment of the Soviet Union, but ended up betrayed by Stalin.

What does Snowball try to teach the animals to do?

Answer: Snowball tries to teach the animals how to read and write.

Explanation:

Snowball organizes the animals into Animal Committees that have different goals. There is, for instance, the Clean Tails League, and Re-education Committee. The goal of the latter is to re-educate the rats and rabbits. Snowball does succeed in his plan to teach the animals how to read and write, although other committees generally fail to achieve their goals. The pigs, for example, learn to fluently read and write.

What is the name of the incident in which Farmer Jones tries to retake the farm?

Answer: The Battle of the Cowshed.

Explanation:

In Chapter 4, the Battle of the Cowshed takes place. One day, the animals are working when they notice Mr. Jones and his men entering the gates of the farm. The animals realize that the men came to retake the farm by force. Snowball has already prepared a defense plan based on a book about Julius Caesar's strategy, so he eventually defeats the humans with only one animal death as a result. Mr. Jones has no other option but to flee the farm and never come back.
