Jake, brave, pitiful, and older than his years, gazed down at his starving family. His mother had passed on a few months ago, and her dying wish was that the family stay together. Jake knew the foster system; it was unlikely that they could all stay together, especially with his track record with the law. Yet, he knew that they would not survive long without more food and money. He felt torn between fulfilling his promise to his mother and that other promise he made, the promise to himself. He had vowed to change his life when his mother was diagnosed with cancer. Stealing would fulfill her promise (as long as he didn't get caught) but break the promise to himself that made him a new man. This new man cared for his siblings; what would happen to his family if he became a thief?

Answer:
J. Verbal Irony
Explanation:
War is Kind is a poem by Steven Crane.
The poem begins with the speaker telling a maiden not to weep -
<em>Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind</em>
The technique used here is verbal irony.
Verbal Irony: This is a literary technique that occurs when a speaker says something that contrasts with what he means; his actions and emotions.
Verbal irony was used on the line above.
The speaker is very much aware of the brutality and unkind nature of war but still describes war as a kind phenomenon and tells the maiden not to weep.
