Dramatic irony is a stylistic device that is most commonly used by storytellers, in plays, in the theater, and in movies. The irony is used as a plot device to create situations where the reader knows much more about the episodes and the resolutions before the chief character or characters.

Examples are:

In Merchant of Venice, the reader is aware that Lancelot is cheating his father openly; in Tempest, Prospero and the reader are aware of the presence of Gonzalo on the Island but Miranda does not.

In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo finds Juliet in deep and drugged slumber, assumes her dead, and kills himself ignorantly before Juliet wakes up, discovers her dead lover, and kills herself.

Which words from the passage are a good example of direct characterization?
Andrew [12]

C.) He is very studious and a bit of a perfectionist is the correct answer because though all of the other choices can be used to describe a character indirectly, the use of the adjective "studious" and the descriptive noun "perfectionist" allows us to determine the character's personality without any implication or analysis needed.

A story with the title it pays to wait​
Otrada [13]

Answer:

There comes a time in everyone's life when we all have to wait. Even royalty are governed at times and cannot be spared! In life there are many things that we are waiting for. Waiting for Utopia, for that perfect partner, for that dream job, or simply waiting at the traffic lights or the check-out in the supermarkets. Waiting is a big part of our life, and it can sometimes become one of the most important parts. So we had better start to enjoy waiting, otherwise we will cause ourselves anxiety and frustration!Waiting doesn't seem to be a very important thing when we compare it to all that activity and doing-ness. But, hey how about giving it another thought. Is waiting not a gestation period? Does waiting not prepare us for what is to come? Imagine what it would be like if things would just seem to pounce upon us; we would not be prepared to appreciate the surprises. The wait builds up the anticipation and enthusiasm for what is to come. The wait makes us value what is to arrive in a much better way. We say: "It was well worth the wait." And actually something extra was added in that waiting....what we wait for seems to makea meaningful difference to our waiting. hope it will help you
