Which of these sets of words impact tone in this passage? see passage below
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D) reading, ideal, implement

Explanation:

The passage talks about the reading culture of a young boy named Randall which was greatly inhibited by the fact that his teachers introduced a lot of old books for them to read, and which he and other students could not really relate to. His perception of what was ideal was a mixture of both old and new books which would create a sort of balance and make reading more enjoyable.

He proposed the idea to his teachers and they promised to implement it. These three keywords: reading, ideal, implement, set the tone of the passage.

Which event is an example of irony in Macbeth?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: B. King Duncan thinks Macbeth is good and virtuous man, when in reality Macbeth is plotting his murder.

Irony occurs when a character believes something that is the complete opposite of reality. For irony to work in a play, the audience usually has to have more information that the characters. In this case, the audience knows that Macbeth is planning the murder of King Duncan. However, the audience also knows that King Duncan believes Macbeth to be a good and virtuous man. This contradiction is an example of irony in the play.
