An example of irony used in The Outsiders Book: "You ought to know better than to run away in just a sweatshirt, and a wet one at that. Don't you ever use your head?" he sounded so much like Darry that I stared at him.
Answer:
Repetition is a literary device that makes an idea or message clearer by using it continuously.
It can also be used as a rhetorical device; a word, line or sentence repeated to make its significance in the whole text more emphatic.

Answer:
There are two ways which we can use to change the sentence from affirmative to negative:
1. Not only the industrious prosper in life.
2. Only the industrious do not prosper in life.
Explanation:
1. If we choose to make the negative this way, the meaning we will convey is that industrious people prosper, but they are not the only ones. Other people can prosper too.
2. On the other hand, if we negate this way, we will completely deny the original affirmation. We will be saying that everyone else prospers in life excerpt for industrious people.
Both ways are grammatically correct, even though they convey different meanings.

Explanation:
What we see in this story are two extremes of kinship: Monsieur and Madame Valmondé very willingly take in Desiree as a baby who they knew nothing about. There were theories among the townspeople that she was left by a party of traveling Texans, but that did not seem to make a difference for the Valmondés. They took in Desiree as she was, and it was only when Armand took a fancy to her as a grownup that Monsieur Valmondé cautioned Armand to at least consider the background of Desiree. When Desiree realized what Armand thought about their child and about her racial background, she writes a heartfelt and urgent letter to Madame Valmondé. The Madame sends back a brief reply: "My own Desiree: Come home to Valmondé; back to your mother who loves you. Come with your child." It is more than evident that regardless of all that has happened - and from the tone of Valmondé's letter it seems that she knew something like this was going to happen - Valmondé very enthusiastically tells Desiree to come home. Moreover, she tells her to bring the baby as well.
