Which passage from Chapter 4 of Botchan uses sarcasm?

English
1 answer:
Tema [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

I was more or less uneasy until I found out what they were, but now I saw they were grasshoppers, they set me on the war path.

Explanation:

Sarcasm is simply using irony to mock or make jest of something/someone. The writer used sarcasm here to convey his thoughts and feelings about the ants. He used irony to talk about going to war with the ants when he clearly meant something else.

He was trying to ridicule someone by declaring that he was uneasy at first before declaring all out war when he discovered he was dealing with ants.

Reika [66]

<u>Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition</u> -<u>Reading the summary first</u>- Survey. SQRW (the S stands for Survey) is a four-step strategy for reading/taking notes from chapters in a textbook. It helps to understand what you read and to prepare a written record of what you learned. To survey means to assess the information available. To survey a chapter, read the title, introduction, headings, and the summary or conclusion. By surveying a chapter, you will quickly learn what the chapter is about. <u>SQRW</u>:

  • <em>Q - Question (you need to have questions in your mind as you read); </em>
  • <em>R - Read (read the information that follows each heading to find the answer to each question you formed);</em>
  • <em>W - Write (write each question and its answer in your notebook).</em>
