What is the irony of the poem small pain in my chest?

English

Vinvika [58]3 years ago

<span>The expression “small pain” is repeatedly used in the poem only to make sure we get the irony and get that well. As we go through the poem, it gets clearer that the pain was not at all a small one, rather it was a fatal injury that the soldier boy succumbed to. So the poet might be hinting that the injury of the soldier boy is not a great injury compared to the destruction war can cause.</span>

What is the function of the pronoun "their" in the sentence?
noname [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

A is saying that the word mice should be mouse so then the sentence would be "Mouse got to scared and ran in their holes" but since the word their is usually used to describe many things, A doesn't work

B is saying that the word "mice" is an antecedent which makes sense because an antecedent is a word that can be used by pronouns to describe such as in this sentence the word "their" is describing mice. Another example is " Kate saw John and called to him" in this case "John" is an antecedent and the pronoun "him" is used to describe him.

C is saying that  the word "their" is used to describe the action but that doesn't make sense because their is being used to say that they ran into their holes, and to be able to use their like that it would have to be "there" like if the sentence was "mice got to scared, there running into their holes"

D is basically saying that their replaces the word mice so instead of the sentence being "mice got to scared and ran in mice holes" which doesn't make that much sense

In the play <em>Our Town</em>, memory is an important element. The play touches on the topic of nostalgia, and on how humans tend to look back to the past with fondness. By doing this, they forget about enjoying the present, which reinforces the cycle.

An example is the character of Emily. She is now dead, and the dead advise her to stop looking toward the world of the living. She needs to let go of her past and move on. Moreover, she has to start looking towards her future and her new "life." However, Emily is incapable of letting go of her past. She is shocked to realize how humans do not appreciated life when it is going on, but instead take too much pleasure on their memories and their past. However, Emily is doing the same by being unable to let go of her past life and learning to appreciate what her present offers her.
