Read the excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi." "Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at

the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it." Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled. "Dell," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on." Which best describes the use of irony in this excerpt?

(i'll give brainlyest 100 points!)Compare how both Europe and Asla are limiting humans Impact on the environment.​
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

There is a long-standing dispute on the extent to which population growth causes environmental degradation. Most studies on this link have so far analyzed cross-country data, finding contradictory results. However, these country-level analyses suffer from the high level of dissimilarity between world regions and strong collinearity of population growth, income, and other factors. We argue that regional-level analyses can provide more robust evidence, isolating the population effect from national particularities such as policies or culture. We compile a dataset of 1062 regions within 22 European countries and analyze the effect from population growth on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and urban land use change between 1990 and 2006. Data are analyzed using panel regressions, spatial econometric models, and propensity score matching where regions with high population growth are matched to otherwise highly similar regions exhibiting significantly less growth. We find a considerable effect from regional population growth on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and urban land use increase in Western Europe. By contrast, in the new member states in the East, other factors appear more important.

What effect for Scrooge's repeated questions achieve?
Artist 52 [7]

Scrooge is not a man who usually asks questions. He is used to being in control, sure of his opinions and his wealth. But the spirits intervene in order to change his heart completely. In order to do that, Scrooge must learn humility, looking closely at himself in order to realize he is a seriously flawed man with skewed values.

Scrooge's journey begins with questions as he tries to understand what the spirits want from him. He asks Marley, "Dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me?'' As each spirit appears, he begins by asking it questions to understand what to expect from each journey.  

But as the story progresses, his questions become more personal. Emotion takes over and he starts repeating questions in order to learn about himself. As he faces the reality of his death and the fact no one will miss him, Scrooge knows that his life must change. 

His questioning shows both his nervousness and his growing awareness of how much of his life he has wasted. He asks the silent Spirit of Christmas Yet to Come several questions, all of which he must answer for himself. Finally he asks a life changing question: "Are these the shadows of the things that Will be, or are they shadows of things that May be, only?''

Through his questions, Scrooge gains the self-awareness and humility to turn himself into a new man.
