Read the excerpt below: "I like pond skating best by moonlight. The hollow among the hills will always have a bit of mist about

it, let the sky be clear as it may. The moonlight, which seems so lucid and brilliant when you look up, is all pearl and smoke round the pond and the hills. The shore that was like iron under your heel as you came down to the ice is vague, when you look back at it from the center of the pond, as the memory of a dream. The motion is like flying in a dream; you float free and the world floats under you; your velocity is without effort and without accomplishment, for, speed as you may, you leave nothing behind and approach nothing." From what type of essay was this selection taken?
a) Poetry
b) Short Story
c) Play
d) None of the answer choices are correct

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The type of irony used in the excerpt is dramatic irony.

Explanation:

Dramatic irony is related to a situation in which readers know and understand something that the characters themselves don't.<u> In this case, readers know Janet is in trouble for agreeing to wear the sweater.</u> We know she no longer has it because she exchanged it for the boots. As a matter of fact, we know she hated the sweater when she got it, and lied to Bobby saying she loved it.

<u>Bobby, however, is clueless to all that. He believes Janet still has the sweater, and is upset that she does not seem to appreciate the expensive gift. Bobby has no idea of the "pickle" Janet is in because of his demand. That is why this is an example of dramatic irony.</u>
