Which of the following is an example of situational irony?​

English
1 answer:
IgorC [24]2 years ago
4 0

The answer to this problem is C and here’s why:

By definition, situational irony is when something happens that was the opposite of what was expected. In this example, a man goes on a picnic in the Mojave Desert, but it gets ruined by rain. Since this is in a desert, you wouldn’t expect it to rain, you would expect it to be dry. Since it happened anyways, this is situational irony.

Answer:

Swift uses a false premise to create humor.

Explanation:

Ridiculous situations abound in Gulliver's travels and this is one of them. It is quite absurd that a man born blind could be versed in the art of painting. Having blind apprentices too supports this because they can't know what they are doing let alone teach someone else.

Of course the professor must be generally mistaken and the fraternity that elevates him must be one ridiculous lot.

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.
ludmilkaskok [199]

<em>We planned to take a trip to Asia in three years or less.</em>

The modifier "in three years or less" was misplaced.

  • A <u>misplaced modifier</u> is a word or phrase which is separated from the subject it modifies, thus making the sentence syntactically incorrect as well as illogical:<em> I found the </em><u><em>stained</em></u><em> man's hankerchief</em>.
  • A <u>squinting modifier</u> creates ambiguity in a sentence through its placement, by making it unclear which part it modifies (the one that comes before it or the one that comes after it): <em>Combing your hair </em><u><em>softly</em></u><em> detangles it</em>.
  • A <u>dangling modifier</u> gives an information without clearly stating its subject in the sentence. It often consists of "<em>having</em> + past participle" or "<em>being</em> + past participle" constructions, like: <u><em>Being tired after the show</em></u><em>, going straight home was the best plan</em>.

What is the value of x? ____° b= 70 and a=30 c=x
labwork [276]
Are you talking about a triangle?
If so, the angles in a triangle add up to 180.
70 + 30 = 100
So c must be 80 because 100 + 80 = 180.
x = 80
