Answer:

These lines present dramatic irony because they show information that the public is aware of, but the characters are not.

Explanation:

The question above is about "Story of an Hour" where while we, as readers, know that the main character's husband is not dead, she doesn't know. However, when she finds out that her husband is alive, she passes out and has a heart attack that leads to her death. However, this heart attack is not caused by happiness but by the terror of knowing that her husband is alive.

This situation where the reader knows information, but the character does not, is an example of dramatic irony.

The correct answer is C. complex.
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Here, the independent clause is <em>Galileo, the first astronomer to use a telescope, confirmed the theory </em>and the dependent clause is <em>that the earth and planets circle the sun.
</em>A is incorrect because a simple sentence contains only one independent clause; B is incorrect because a compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses; D is incorrect because a compound-complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least two dependent ones.

<span>The theme that the passage implies about children and learning is :C. Children who learn facts and conform will likely succeed in life. Even though the speech is described from the narrator's perspective, we have to focus on the words, not on the narrator's attitude. With all the strictness and seriousness, all the people on the scene tried to show the importance of appealing to facts and of being pragmatic, meaning that only if kids followed this way of learning they would succeed.</span>
