Answer:
These preliminaries settled, he did not care to put off any longer the execution of his design, urged on to it by the thought of all the world was losing by his delay, seeing what wrongs he intended to right, grievances to redress, injustices to repair, abuses to remove, and duties to discharge. So, without giving notice of his intention to anyone, and without anybody seeing him, one morning before the dawning of the day (which was one of the hottest of the month of July) he donned his suit of armour, mounted Rocinante with his patched-up helmet on, braced his buckler, took his lance, and by the back door of the yard sallied forth upon the plain in the highest contentment and satisfaction at seeing with what ease he had made a beginning with his grand purpose. But scarcely did he find himself upon the open plain, when a terrible thought struck him, one all but enough to make him abandon the enterprise at the very outset. It occurred to him that he had not been dubbed a knight, and that according to the law of chivalry he neither could nor ought to bear arms against any knight; and that even if he had been, still he ought, as a novice knight, to wear white armour, without a device upon the shield until by his prowess he had earned one. These reflections made him waver in his purpose, but his craze being stronger than any reasoning, he made up his mind to have himself dubbed a knight by the first one he came across, following the example of others in the same case, as he had read in the books that brought him to this pass. As for white armour, he resolved, on the first opportunity, to scour his until it was whiter than an ermine; and so comforting himself he pursued his way, taking that which his horse chose, for in this he believed lay the essence of adventures.
There are three types of irony, verbal, situational, and dramatic. Verbal irony is the use of words to mean something different than what the person says. Situational irony is when something different happens than what is expected. Lastly, dramatic irony is when is when the audience is aware of something the characters are not.
In the story "Harrison Bergeron," Vonnegut employs dramatic irony. The audience is aware that Harrison was murdered by the government, but the characters although they witnessed it, cannot recall mere moments later that their own son was murdered. He was murdered for rejecting the government and their control over trying to make everyone equal and the same mechanisms caused his own parents to forget him.
Answer:
Breakfast was amazing, <u>but</u> I kept knocking stuff off the breakfast table. I couldn't work properly <u>because</u> I had stayed up the whole night typing away without stopping on the huge computer <em>like a beaver tirelessly building a dam out of wood</em>. I somehow managed to go to school where I had to write more boring essays. Finally, the bell rung to signal the start of lunchtime. A most heavenly time.
<u>Underlined</u>= conjunctions
Bold= descriptive words
<em>Italics</em>= figurative language
Explanation:
First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.
Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.
Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.
Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.

Answer:
The structure of the novel “The Grapes of Wrath ” is unusual.
Explanation:
The structure of “The Grapes of Wrath ” by “John Steinbeck” is quite unconventional. There are narrative chapters in which the narrator is omnipresent and sees everything and is aware about all the thoughts and actions of all the characters. But, in the intercalary chapters, there is a pause in the main narrative and the narrator changes. The views on this break is mixed, some feel that it is frustrating, and the two distinct sections of the novel are not properly related, others say that this has been thoughtfully by John Steinbeck.
The characters in the novel face a lot of conflicts because they are forced to travel away from their homes to California. They migrate as farmers ion hope of achieving success during The Great Depression.
The intercalary chapters in the novel are also called the 'inner chapters', which do not directly affect John but indirectly convey the inputs on the struggles of the characters. The main reason of the intercalary chapters is to give an idea about how the world (social and economic system of the world) was during that time to the readers. Many literary techniques are applied in the “intercalary chapters”. Most common is dramatization. Use of monologues and dialogues show the historical reasons behind the events that are occurring in the story. For example, how farmers were forced so sell their lands and how drought forced the farmers to migrate to a new place. The language used in the novel, specially in the structures of King James Bible reflect about the moral beauty of the novel. These lines give the novel a spiritual touch as well.
