Which of these excerpts from poems by Emily Dickinson uses irony? A. My cocoon tightens, colors tease, I'm feeling for the air;

A dim capacity for wings Degrades the dress I wear. B. Could she have guessed that it would be; Could but a crier of the glee Have climbed the distant hill; Had not the bliss so slow a pace, — Who knows but this surrendered face Were undefeated still? C. One dignity delays for all, One mitred afternoon. None can avoid this purple, None evade this crown. D. There's a certain slant of light, On winter afternoons, That oppresses, like the weight Of cathedral tunes. Heavenly hurt it gives us; We can find no scar, But internal difference Where the meanings are. E. Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, — Past the houses, past the headlands, Into deep eternity!

Answer:

The excerpt from poems by Emily Dickinson that uses irony is E.

Explanation:

The excerpt "Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, — Past the houses, past the headlands, Into deep eternity!" is an example of irony since it shows death and the process of the elevation of the soul as something divine, something marvelous and enigmatically celestial experience. All the opposite of what most people think about it

Quick Poem ~

Whose dog is that? I think I know.

Its owner is quite happy though.

Full of joy like a vivid rainbow,

I watch her laugh. I cry hello.

She gives her dog a shake,

And laughs until her belly aches.

The only other sound's the break,

Of distant waves and birds awake.

The dog is breathtaking, extraordinary and deep,

But she has promises to keep,

After cake and lots of sleep.

Sweet dreams come to her cheap.

She rises from her gentle bed,

With thoughts of kittens in her head,

She eats her jam with lots of bread.

Ready for the day ahead.

What do you think a government official would say?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Legislative—Makes laws (Congress, comprised of the House of Representatives and Senate)

Executive—Carries out laws (president, vice president, Cabinet, most federal agencies)

Judicial—Evaluates laws (Supreme Court and other courts)

Each branch of government can change acts of the other branches:

The president can veto legislation created by Congress and nominates heads of federal agencies.

Congress confirms or rejects the president's nominees and can remove the president from office in exceptional circumstances.

The Justices of the Supreme Court, who can overturn unconstitutional laws, are nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate.

This ability of each branch to respond to the actions of the other branches is called the system of checks and balances.

Legislative Branch of the U.S. Government

The legislative branch drafts proposed laws, confirms or rejects presidential nominations for heads of federal agencies, federal judges, and the Supreme Court, and has the authority to declare war. This branch includes Congress (the Senate and House of Representatives) and special agencies and offices that provide support services to Congress. American citizens have the right to vote for Senators and Representatives through free, confidential ballots.
