8 0

The Irony and the pun in the sentences are as follows:

1. Ned said, I just love working in the hot sun. When can we do this again?"

The above sentence shows irony ,as no one would want to work in the hot sun, but Ned is expressing contrary to it.

2. Billy Fisher was a minor character and remained one as an adult  

The above phrase show a play with words and also depicts dark humor, as it suggests the Billy would be a minor, even as an adult. Thus this suggests pun in the sentence.

3. Kara read that Tom Sawyer tricked the boys. What a good friend!" she  remarked.

This sentence shows irony, as what is being exclaimed by Kara is the opposite to what Tom's deed are.

4.His friend's none the wiser, Tom surveyed the results of his whitewashing.

This sentence suggests neither irony, nor pun.

Which of the following describes how the nursery is supposed to work?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

I believe the answer would be (a)

Explanation:

The reason is because Wendy and Peter were thinking about lions in a svannah and those are the images that were projected on the walls. The children wanted to experience lions eating their parents. The father of the children even said that the children used to think of a cow that jumped over the moon and that was projected on the walls. Next the kids pictured a girl sitting in a forest clearing and that got projected on the walls. That was because they were hiding the truth of what they wanted to experience.
