Which best explains the irony of Hauchecorne's fate in "The Piece of String"?

English

Answer: A. His reputation as a deceitful person makes other disbelieve him, even though he is telling the truth.

Explanation: An irony is when an event seems contrary to what we expect. In the story Hauchecorne had a bad reputation as a dishonest person, so when Malandain blamed him for stealing a wallet, no one believed Hauchecorne when he said he didn't do it, even though he was telling the truth. That is a clear example of an irony.

I think the answer is A because the villagers only knew him as a crafty old man even though he was telling the truth. They assumed this because of past experiences.

Read the excerpt from activist Cesar Chavez’s 1984 address to the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco.
Alexeev081 [22]

These answers do not fully reflect the powerful poetry used to reflect his feelings. For example, Farm workers are not agricultural implements to be used like beasts of burden and discarded.

His anger stems from what he sees (growers misused their control; the workers were many they growers were few). His anger stems from what he experiences (restaurants were a closed door for him. The latest movies were forbidden territory). His anger grew from the injustice he saw his people suffer. There was no fairness in the way they were treated. His anger is fueled by watching those he loved be reduced to powerlessness and prejudice against those around him.

Which two statements reflect this?

I would pick the first one. His anger is pretty singular and he does want to see go on. The second last one would also be a choice. The root of the problem is racism and mistreatment.
