The lines in the above excerpt from act V of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet which creates dramatic irony are:

"Death, that hath suck'd the honey of thy breath,  

Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:  

Thou art not conquer'd; beauty's ensign yet  

Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,  

And death's pale flag is not advanced there."

An example of dramatic irony in Act V, Scene 3 of “Romeo and Juliet” is when Romeo thought Juliet was dead,  because of which he poisoned himself, but the audience knew she was alive. 

After knowing that Juliet had died Romeo wanted to enter the tomb in which Juliet laid dead desperately. When he discovers Paris he asks him to get away from the tomb, but he didn't leave the tomb. Paris and Romeo indulge themselves in a fight in which Paris is killed by Romeo. He takes Paris into Juliet's tomb and then drinks the poison. When Juliet awakes, she finds Romeo dead after which she too stabs herself with a dagger. This event was an example of Dramatic irony as the audience knew very well that Juliet is feigning her death but Romeo finds it to be the reality.

Answer: Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:  

Thou art not conquer'd; beauty's ensign yet  

Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,  

And death's pale flag is not advanced there.  

Explanation: Since Juliet is not dead Romeo says her lips are red and she is not pale so that is dramatically ironic because he doesn't know that she is alive and he will kill himself afterwards.

Answer and Explanation:

America's expansion contributed to the strength and diverse nature of his literary works. This is because this expansion allowed people to be subjected to completely different factors in different regions of the country, in addition to encompassing cultures and attracting many immigrants who already had literary elements that were adapted to American culture. Because it is such a large country, the regions promoted life experiences and visions of the world that were totally different among people, which profoundly influenced the authors. We can see this diversification through Southern Gothic works, which addressed the theme, visions and scenarios that were not addressed in the literature of the rest of the country.

why do you think Rachel did not speak up and advocate for herself in the book "Eleven" by Sandra Cisneros
netineya [11]

She maybe didn't feel confident in herself or the character itself is shy. I'm not sure if I read the same book but Rachel might feel like she was wrong and her teacher was right.
