Answer:
The description during the horse race improves the scene by making me feel as though I am in the action and experiencing events at the same time Paul is. I can see Paul taking note of what is around him as he and the grey pass one horse at a time. The description of the horse sizzling like lightning makes Paul's win seem really exciting.

Madness prevents a person from exercising careful thought.

“ It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! --would a madman have been so wise as this?”
Explanation:
Based on the excerpt of this story, the narrator seems to believe that "madness prevents a person from exercising careful thought".
The narrator kept showing that someone who is mad can't be meticulous and careful in carrying out the kind of action he carried out in killing the old man.
It's seen that the narrator stated how meticulous he was in even opening the door. This carefulness will be impossible for a madman to carry out. Therefore, he believes that madness will prevent one from being careful. Then he said: “ It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! --would a madman have been so wise as this?”
A. I guess that the character from The Importance of Being Earnest that resembles Wilde most would be Algernon.
He is flamboyant, and a party-maniac, and loves to make fun of other people who are not like him. Wilde was like that in his real life too - he was a Victorian man but completely against that period, and he loved to express himself in a manner that would often weird out other people. Algernon is Wilde's voice in the play - he comments on other characters and criticizes them for their exaggerated Victorian values that Wilde hated with a passion.
B. Verbal irony is a sarcastic way of saying opposite of what you actually mean. Dramatic irony is when the readers know something that the characters in the play are unaware of. Situational irony occurs when expectations of what is going to happen and what actually happens do not match.
As for the examples, I don't have the play on me, just use these definitions and find them for yourself. :)
