Answers with Explanations:

1. Ned said, <em>"I just love working in the hot sun. When can we do it again?"</em>

Ned exclaimed the opposite of what he's actually feeling because, in reality, <em>he doesn't want to work under the hot sun.</em> By asking the question<em> "When can we do it again?,"</em> actually means that<u> he is not looking forward to another day to working in the hot sun.</u>

2. Billy Fisher was a minor character and remained one as an adult.

This statement actually meant that <em>Billy Fisher's importance in the story only remained as a minor one </em>and <u>he never progressed</u> until the he grew older into an adult.

3. Kara read that Tom Sawyer tricked the boys. What a good friend!" she remarked.

Kara actually meant that Tom Sawyer's tricking the boys was a <u>mischievous thing to do.</u> Thus, she stated in verbal irony that he was a <em>"good friend" </em>when, in fact, what he did wasn't good.

4. His friends none the wiser, Tom surveyed the results of his whitewashing.

Tom actually didn't do the whitewashing, it was Ben and the his other friends whom he lured into whitewashing as he told them it was an enjoyable thing to do. Being given the chance to do the whitewashing, Tom's friends gave him a prize in return.
