Read the fable and determine its theme. In a paragraph of three to five sentences, use evidence from the story to support your i

dentified theme. One fine day in winter some Ants were busy drying their store of corn, which had got rather damp during a long spell of rain. Presently up came a Grasshopper and begged them to spare her a few grains, "For," she said, "I'm simply starving." The Ants stopped work for a moment, though this was against their principles. "May we ask," said they, "what you were doing with yourself all last summer? Why didn't you collect a store of food for the winter?" "The fact is," replied the Grasshopper, "I was so busy singing that I hadn't the time." "If you spent the summer singing," replied the Ants, "you can't do better than spend the winter dancing." And they chuckled and went on with their work.

How does the author use dramatic irony to create humor in king of the jungle
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The author provokes naivety in the characters, making them not know the obvious things that the public already knows, creating humor from naivete.

Explanation:

The dramatic irony is identified in a text when the author uses symbols to pass messages to the public without revealing anything to the characters. This creates unpredictability for the character and an advantage for the audience that is following the story. In this case, the author can create humor (where the audience laughs at the character's naivete and therefore his inability to act correctly) or suspense (letting the reader know the element of drama that the character is not aware of).
