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>

Explanation:
Pathos is a quality or emotional appeal that aims to elicit a certain emotion from an audience or listener to convince them to take a course of action. The speaker giving a speech to a large crowd of people for example, appeals to the emotions of the people in fighting or helping with cause by appealing to what they care about.
Answer:
A. Pangeans are historically untrustworthy.
Explanation:
The speaker's point of view is most likely that Pangeans are historically untrustworthy. At the beginning of the passage, he states that Pangea has long yearned to possess their resources. That's why he thinks they're likely to attack. Based on the following statements, we can conclude that Pangeans already tried defeating them. He doesn't explicitly state that it was them who attacked (<em>We have never been defeated before </em>- he doesn't say by whom), but based on the context, we can make this conclusion.
The speaker says that his people will defend what is theirs, which means that they will respond to violence by violence. To him, war isn't the last resort for resolving conflict.
Democratic principles are something he obviously treasures (<em>what makes us fair-minded and democratic is our strong national character</em>), and he never says anything about suspending them during wartime.
This is why option A is the correct one.
