The answer is A) description because the teacher is describing the exact consequence for the exact behaviour. We can see that she has little time for nonsense and for misbehaviour and that she is strict and doles out punishments. While we can see this through actual dialogue it is not dialogue that characterizes the teacher. Pacing is used to see how fast or slow the story progresses and reflection is looking back on a story.

Give your own sarcastic remark. Is sarcasm ironic? Explain your answer.
andre [41]
Sarcasm is an ironic or satirical remark tempered by humor. Mainly, people use it to say the opposite of what's true to make someone look or feel foolish. For example, let's say you see someone struggling to open a door and you ask them, "Do you want help?" If they reply by saying, "No thanks. I'm really enjoying the challenge," you'll know they're being sarcastic. Sarcasm is all about the context and tone of voice, which is why it works better verbally. It's something you'll know when you hear it.
