Explanation:
For Georgiana: It was about the flaws each and every individual has. No one is perfect, even though some may say the "yes, I'm perfect and so are you!" so and so. No! For Georgiana, it was a symbol of being human, for being who she was, and not for anyone else. The birthmark meant that she was special and unique in her own way.
For Aylmer: It simply meant about perfection and greed. He was blinded by perfection and the comments of others that made him so obsessed with the word 'perfect' and 'beautiful', that he went to extreme lengths to make that happen, not knowing it would affect him and Georgiana greatly later on. He was blinded by greed. He had Georgiana, no one else did. So, why not make it more? Why not create and transform her into someone who she wasn't. Without the birthmark, Georgiana was simply not Georgiana. She was another person, someone whole new different that Alymer created.

Answer:
3. The excerpt is an example of situational irony, as Jim has sold the watch for which Della bought a chain.
Explanation:
Irony is the use of language in such a way that the intended meaning of the words is expressed through the use of another opposite expression or words. This rhetorical device presents a situation as something but what the reality is, is a much different thing.
In the given excerpt from O Henry's short story <em>The Gift of the Magi</em>, the scene is that of situational irony. <u>Situational irony occurs when the expected outcome is not what happened but rather the opposite happens. </u>Likewise, the scene is a situational irony for both the characters of Jim and Della wanted to please each other with their gifts. But both ended up selling the very thing that the other person has bought the gift for. <u>Della sold her hair to buy a watch chain for Jim while Jim sold his watch to buy an ornamental comb for Della's hair.
</u>
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
B. it is an English sonnet
First add the whole numbers.
Then find the LCM (least common multiple) of 3 and 2, which are the denominators of both fractions. In this case, the LCM of 3 and 2 are 6.
As you can see in the photo, I multiplied a number than can result in 6 in both denominators. Then multiply that same number to the numerators.
Finally, add 21+2, but keep the denominator as 6.
This is how I learned it, hope it helps.
