The Gift of the Magi:  

The ironic thing in “The Gift of the Magi” is that the husband gives up his most cherished treasure a watch, so he can buy her a comb/hairpiece for her hair. She gives up her most cherished treasure, her hair, to buy a chain for his watch.  Its ironic because they both gave up something that they cherished most event though the things they sold it for were just things/possessions.  What is important is there love for each other and that should outweigh everything else.

The Necklace:

The irony in "The Necklace" is that the woman borrows a necklace from her friend and loses. So the woman got buys a replacement for a lot of money.  Only to find out the original necklace was a cheap fake. The ironic thing is if she would have just told her friend then she wouldn’t have had to spend money and replace it.

Which character is the best example of a tragic hero​
monitta

Answer: to me, D or B seems the most logical answers

Explanation:

1. The plot focuses around a superhuman or hero.

Odysseus is the hero in poem, the story beginning ten years after the Trojan War. He is on his journey home, but he is held captive by Calypso, a nymph, on the island of Calypso.

It involves supernatural forces, such as gods, angels, and demons.

There are multitudes of creatures in the Odyssey, including the Sirens, Cyclops, and Charybdis, to name a few.

The superhuman or hero may have a tragic flaw.

Odysseus' tragic flaw is his hubris, meaning extreme arrogance and pride.

ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIST !!! *have to get it right *
svet-max [94.6K]

The correct answer is B. Time

Explanation:

The text presented explains the way researchers from the University of Arizona studied how much women and men speak. In sentence 2 "Researchers from the University of Arizona placed microphones..." and sentence 3 "Then they sampled their conversation..." the process is explained by using a sequence structure. In this way, the process of placing microphones in women and men precedes the process of sampling the conversation, this relationship in time is suggested by the word "then" that connects both sentences. This means sentences 2 and 3 have a relationship of time because they describe stages that occurred at different times during research.

8. Explain what Mr. Hooper's parishioners take it upon themselves to do and the<br> outcome.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Hooper intensifies the longer that he wears the veil because people wonder if he is trying to hide something or if he sees in their faces some secret sin and, lest he reveal to others this sin, he shields His attitude is one of horror because he cannot understand with "'what horrible crime upon [Father Hooper's] soul'" he will soon face judgement. He may not realize that it is not Father Hooper alone who goes to eternity with "secret sins," but that makes him pretty bad at his job.
