The correct answer is D. Weed tree that wreaks havoc on the environment is referred to favorably as the "tree-of-heaven."
Explanation:
Irony occurs when the outcome in a situation is not the one expected or words have an opposite meaning to the literal meaning. In the excerpt, there is irony because the three known as the "tree-of-heaven" in China is an invasive and harmful species. This can be seen in "implacable invaders capable of rooting in tiny chinks in subway tunnels" and in "heaving up sidewalks and wreaking havoc in sewers" that shows the power the tree has to invade spaces and destroy structures despite the name suggests the tree is positive. This means there is an incongruence between the expectations about the tree and the reality. Thus, the statement that explains irony is statement D.
Answer:
In first person point of view the narrator is a character in the story, dictating events from their perspective using "I" or "we." In second person, the reader becomes the main character, addressed as "you" throughout the story and being immersed in the narrative Explanation:
Tree height: 32 2/5
Flagpole: 5/9 * 32 2/5
Ramiro: 3/10 * Flagpole
5/9 * 32 2/5 =
= 5/9 * 162/5 =
= 1/9 * 162/1 =
= 1/1 * 18/1 =
= 1 * 18 =
= 18 [feet]
So the flagpole is 18 feet tall. Ramiro is 3/10 of its height, so:
3/10 * 18 =
= 54/10 =
= 5 4/10 =
= 5 2/5
Answer: Ramiro is 5 2/5 feet tall.
A and d would be correct if it is multiple choice
If you mean paragraph as in a paragraph in a narrative essay, you would likely do this at the beginning paragraph leading into the next paragraph. That way the reader understands the setting, main character's names, any current conflicts, and any other necessary information while they continue to read.
