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?

Is it better for people to learn from others, or is it better for people to learn on their own?
Afina-wow [57]
Both are equally as important. It’s great to learn from your own mistakes because you suffer the consequence or thrive in the reward. But same for learning from others. If you are surrounded by people who are a bad influence, they may suffer the consequences of their actions and you will know not to make the same mistake they did. If you surround yourself with a good group of people, they may be rewarded for something they did or an achievement they reached, so it may encourage you to do better or be a better person like your friends.
