Answer:

The Gift of the Magi:  

The ironic thing in “The Gift of the Magi” is that the husband gives up his most cherished treasure a watch, so he can buy her a comb/hairpiece for her hair. She gives up her most cherished treasure, her hair, to buy a chain for his watch.  Its ironic because they both gave up something that they cherished most event though the things they sold it for were just things/possessions.  What is important is there love for each other and that should outweigh everything else.

The Necklace:

The irony in "The Necklace" is that the woman borrows a necklace from her friend and loses. So the woman got buys a replacement for a lot of money.  Only to find out the original necklace was a cheap fake. The ironic thing is if she would have just told her friend then she wouldn’t have had to spend money and replace it.

Charles:

The irony in “Charles” is that Charles goes around telling stories about himself. I find this ironic because If your spreading stories you usually don’t spread them about yourself. That’s what I thought was ironic in the story “Charles”.

1. In the poem Nothing Gold Can Stay, How<br>is the poem organized?​
maxonik [38]

Nothing Gold Can Stay was the reflection of the seasonal cycle of nature. The poem though a short one symbolizes what a Mother Nature cannot hold for long the 'Gold' but respects its value/worth.

Explanation:

In this poem, Robert Frost brings out the deep meaning of how few things that are of high value/worth are not treated properly/not respected for their worth. He talks about how Nature (In the poem, he keeps referring it as 'Her') being the Mother of all subjects on Earth.

He starts explaining about the season with a leaf, its color and how it slowly transforms into a bud, turns into a flower and then eventually, a fruit. This cycle, Frost writes in the most metaphorical way for readers to understand what we need to take an advantage of and what we must value, accordingly.

This poem is a classic example of how humans forget what is worthy as we can find it everywhere and look out for things that we do not have in our surroundings.
