Which. it is asking a question
Hello. You did not underline any clause in the sentence above, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
If the underlined clause is "tis going" it means that the speaker of the sentence is indicating that the clock is working.
If the underlined clause is "it strikes well and hearty" it means that the watch is working very well, vigorously and correctly. This is because the words used give the feeling of something that is healthy and that has vigor and disposition for any activity.
Answer:
The speaker's perspective is that of a loving father, happy to entertain and play around with her daughters. He expressed his caring and endless love for them throughout the whole poem.
Explanation:
The poem "The Children's Hour" is written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow about a father and his daughters' relationship. The poem presents a caring and deeply emotional love a father has for his daughters.
The speaker in the poem is an unnamed man, probably the father of the three girls. He comments about himself as "an old mustache as I am." But through his reaction to his daughters bursting into his room, suggests he is a loving father. This can be inferred from the lines that express his feelings for his daughters-
<em>"voices soft and sweet"</em>
<em>"They almost devour me with kisses"</em>
<em>"And there will I keep you forever".</em>
These three lines from the poem are evidence of the father's/ speaker's love for the three little girls- Alice, Allegra, and Edith.
Answer:
Roald Dahl used dramatic irony to create a suspenseful yet intriguing scene for the readers. It captures our attention and did it so well as to entice us to know what the ending will bring.
This dramatic irony makes the readers so engrossed in anticipation, eagerly awaiting the moment the crime may be solved.
Explanation:
In his story "Lamb to the Slaughter", Roald Dahl used dramatic irony to reveal the true events and to maintain the suspense. The dramatic irony is seen when the audience knows the happenings in the story but the characters have no idea about it.
Likewise, the police officers who came to investigate the death of their fellow detective Patrick Maloney who had been killed in his own home. As readers, we know that he was killed by his wife Mary with a <em>"leg of lamb"</em> that she was planning to make for dinner. Then, when the officers accepted to have dinner with their dead colleague's wife, they had the very same murder weapon for dinner, the <em>"piece of evidence" </em>that they need to prove the murder. The best scene is when they admitted the weapon may be <em>"right under our very noses"</em>, which it literally is, on their plates.
This dramatic irony provides huge suspense and also some hilarious results/ effects for the readers. It allows us to feel or see the side of the story that before the characters do, but more importantly it builds the suspense for how the story will end.
