Read the following passage and answer the question that follows: Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, dra

ws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet. Which sentence from this passage explains what the main characters do in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead?
A>"Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot."
B>"As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time."
C>"These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern."
D>"Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet."

PART A: How does the author create irony in the text? Wealthy Teen Nearly Experiences Consequences
MrRa [10]

Answer:

C. The author relies on the reader's expectation that the wealthy teen would be the villain of the story and flips this expectation, making him the regretful protagonist, to create irony.

Explanation:

Irony is the expression of ideas in words that are the opposite of what is meant. To achieve this, The Onion Staff, refrained from using words that paint the wealthy teen to be what he truly was, the villain in the story who drove under the influence of alcohol thus endangering the lives of others.

He was rather painted as the protagonist who was unjustly arrested by the police and denied his luxuries for some time. The effect of this irony was humor that made mockery of Charles Wentworth's misbehaviors.

1. The topic of intelligence gathering, and particularly of online intelligence gathering, has generated a lot of positive and negative reactions on the parts of citizens. On the one hand, intelligence gathering, especially with the appearance of internet, has become more efficient and allows authorities to respond to both internal and external threats in a timely manner. However, on the negative end lies the fact that many of the protocols used to gather information also include, in some form, a certain violation of the right to privacy, among others. This discussion has been ongoing. Also, another pitfall has been that objectivity may not always be present during intelligence information gathering on the part of law enforcers. Finally, and most worryingly is the fact that reports have been made of abuse of power from law enforcers in the act of gathering information and also of manipulation of information.

2. As for online predation, the issue has become a real public problem. The latest research studies not only show an increase in this type of activity, but are also showing that younger adolescents, and even children, are falling victims to this. In essence, online predation is an adult, usually male, who seeks adolescents of certain characteristics online and establishes a sort of relationship with them, until he can lead them to personal meetings were usually sex is present. Most of the children, as of the latest studies, are between the ages of 13 and 17, most are kids with some sort of personal, behavioral, or abuse issue and they spend most of their time online on chatrooms or social media. Since 2000, the policing activities online, given this problem, have increased enormously and now you find undercovered agents posing as adolescents and they make contact with these criminals. Some of these undercover assignments have led to arrests and even discoverings of major criminal pederastic networks.

3. Unfortunately, the process of information gathering while in a murder investigation can be very delicate, and one wrong move can lead to a final decision of not-guilty. One of the mistakes that can take place is when the information and clues gathered are tampered with or wrongly collected. The second one is when there is some sort of involvement on the part of investigators, or there is involvement of personal interests, on the part of law enforcers, with the scene of the crime or the people being investigated. The third is the seeking of information, gathering of information, or collection of people who are suspects without taking the right legal pathway, which means, a judicial order. These are only some of the mistakes that can lead to the exhoneration of someone who might be guilty of murder.
