Explain the title why, you reckon?<span>
The title of this short story is a highlight of the moral. This story written
by Langston Hughes, narrates of a black man who, like many other in the
post-WWII United States which was in the middle of an economic depression, had
found himself wondering if money could buy you happiness, and why are rich
people not happy?</span>
<span>
</span>
Who is asking the question?<span>
The question is presented by the protagonist, who wonders why rich people are
unhappy, despite all the amount of money they have at their disposal. The young
man was poor and hungry and decided to go all the way committing a crime just
for the chance to buy himself a little bit of happiness. </span>
<span>
</span>
What are they wondering about?<span>
The protagonist is wondering if money could perhaps buy happiness, and if so,
why people who have money and power are still unhappy and bored with their
lives? He had always believed that money would make life easier (which is still
a vastly shared thought) and cannot understand how come people with money are
not afraid to lose them. </span>
<span>
</span>
Who are they asking?<span>
The question in the title is perhaps directed to the reader, creating a
connection between the story and the real, outside world. But in the story the
main character is wondering alone in the streets while asking this question to himself.
</span>
<span>
</span>
Why do they want to know?<span>
The main character is eager to understand whether money can buy happiness,
since he has started to doubt it after the encounter with the rich young man
who was excited about being robbed, describing the experience as one of the
most thrilling experiences of his life. The protagonist cannot comprehend how rich
people can still be unhappy and bored despite the immense fortune they have
available. </span>
1. D: the Bishop is kind and caring and even though ValJean is an ex-convict he is still treated like a human being by the Bishop. Calling him 'brother' further shows how he views all people as equals.
2. D: you would expect ValJean to be grateful for the kindness the Bishop shows him and to accept the food and lodging without causing trouble. ValJean is a former criminal but the Bishop trusted him to not steal what he had. ValJean showed the opposite of these expectations by stealing from the Bishop.
3. C: the Bishop welcomes ValJean into his home and treats him like a real human being. The irony is that as soon as someone treats him like a normal person ValJean starts "stuttering like a madman", acting the way everyone before had assumed he would be (crazy).

Answer:
The irony is in the fact that both the lion and the tiger end up doing exactly the opposite of what they intended.
Explanation:
Hi. From the context of your question, we can see that you are referring to “The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger,” which was written by L. Frank Baum. In this story we meet a lion who leaves its habitat determined to tear apart the first person it meets. In the same story, we see a tiger, which leaves its habitat determined to eat the first human baby it targets in front of it. The ironic thing is that when they find what they want they do completely different things.
The lion finds a woman lying on the ground and instead of tearing her to pieces, it lifts the woman and takes her home very gently and safely. The tiger, upon finding a baby on the ground, does not devour the baby, but takes it very gently to its mother, who is the woman the lion helped.
