Authors can use irony to make their audience stop and think about what has just been said, or to emphasize a central idea. The audience's role in realizing the difference between what is said and what is normal or expected is essential to the successful use of irony.

Why did boo radley put a blanket on scout?
allochka39001 [22]
For the first beginning of the story, Scout and Jem assume Boo Radley is a evil person. However by him doing this, it shows that things are not always as they may seem because giving her the blanket shows that he isn't as evil as the believe, which ties into the main theme of the book.

Identify the type of figurative language used by John F. Kennedy in his famous moon speech. "The greater our knowledge increases
nadya68 [22]

     The figurative language used in the excerpt "The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds" is the <u>paradox</u>.  

  The paradox connects in the same situation two opposite things in a construct phrase that together acquires  sense: although it seems more logical that when knowledge increases, ignorance reduces or fades away, the meaning of this sentence is that the more we know, the more we discover that yet we have much to learn; Then, the connection of the increasing knowledge with the unfolding ignorance makes sense.

If we just learn to empathize , we will start to realize that we should not do anything that may negatively impact others such as littering</span>
