5 0

Answer:

"My uncle was arrested another time-did I tell you?-for being a pedestrian."

"You know, I'm not afraid of you... So many people are. Afraid of firemen, I mean."

"I'm seventeen and I'm crazy. My uncle says the two always go together. When people ask your age, he said, always say seventeen and insane."

Explanation:

Irony is a literary term that is used to convey the opposite meaning of what is intended, usually to create humor or emphasis. There are different types of irony such as:

1. Dramatic irony: where the audience knows the outcome, but the actors do not.

2. Verbal irony: when a person says something totally different from what they mean

3. Tragic Irony: this is a type of dramatic irony, but the audience is aware of an incoming tragedy.

how does this excerpt from the end of the story show that odysseus has changed in the course of his adventure
umka21 [38]
The correct answer is that h<span>e values home and family more than personal glory.
As you can see in the excerpt, Odysseys is weeping for his wife whom he loves and whom he hasn't seen in many many years. He cannot wait to go back to Ithaca to finally see his wife and son and be reunited with his family. This is different from the beginning of the story when he set out to become famous.

Select a passage from Chapters 21-25 that uses connotative meanings of words. Discuss what the connotative meanings are and what
drek231 [11]

Connotative meanings are identified through words that do not have real meanings, but subjective meanings and are different from those found in the dictionary.

We can come up with this answer because:

  • Connotative meaning refers to an adapted meaning that refers to figurative language.
  • This is because words with connotative meanings have a different meaning from the real meaning, which is shown in the dictionary.
  • The use of words with connotative meaning is made to deepen and highlight specific points in the text, being able to promote messages and highlight the theme, tone, among others.

You have not provided the text this question refers to, which prevents me from providing a specific answer, but I hope the above information will help you.
