Read the excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. Which sentence reveals the situational irony? Jim had not yet seen his

beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit. "Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it." Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled. "Dell," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on."

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Good habits such as Reliability and Dependability, dedication to your work, cooperation, and communication are very valuable traits you use at both school and work. These will help you because your employers or teachers will note that your responsible and you will get the job (or if you're in school you'll get good grades). School prepares you for work so really these traits are good for both places. People will want to hire that person that's willing to put in hard work and other skills over other people interviewing for the job. Soft skill such as good memory and communication are valuable. At school you learn how to socialize as well in discussions.
