PART A: How does the author create irony in the text? Wealthy Teen Nearly Experiences Consequences

English
1 answer:
MrRa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

C. The author relies on the reader's expectation that the wealthy teen would be the villain of the story and flips this expectation, making him the regretful protagonist, to create irony.

Explanation:

Irony is the expression of ideas in words that are the opposite of what is meant. To achieve this, The Onion Staff, refrained from using words that paint the wealthy teen to be what he truly was, the villain in the story who drove under the influence of alcohol thus endangering the lives of others.

He was rather painted as the protagonist who was unjustly arrested by the police and denied his luxuries for some time. The effect of this irony was humor that made mockery of Charles Wentworth's misbehaviors.

What key information does ismene reveal in line 650 and how does creon respond? Why?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Ismene reveals that she helped Antigona to entertain her brother. Upon hearing this, Creon states that he will condemn Antigone and Ismene to death.

Explanation:

Etéocles and Polinices are brothers and caused the death of the other in a battle. They are also brothers of Antigone and Ismene, who want the brothers to have a dignified funeral and burial. However, Creotes decrees that it is forbidden for Polinices to have a burial, or for any official funeral, but Eteocles is allowed to have a dignified burial. Antigona refuses to obey Creontes and decides that burying her Polynesic brother calls Ismene to do so, but Ismene refuses to participate.

Antigone is caught in the act, and Creon decides to call the two sisters to justify himself. At that moment, Ismene feels that she will not let her sister be punished alone and says that she helped her in the funeral of Polinices. Upon hearing this, Creon states that the two are sentenced to death.

Anyone wanna write a short expository paragraph about why turtles have shells?
castortr0y [4]
Shells evolved from ribs. ... Turtles and other shelled creatures use shells like shields to protect themselves from predators, or animals that hunt them. Turtles probably needed a shield on their backs and stomachs because they faced predators in the ocean from both above and below.
