Answer: stilted

Explanation: Tbh I searched the definition of “stilted”on the internet; it means “(of a manner of talking or writing) stiff and self-conscious or unnatural.” It wouldn’t be slang because slang means everyday talk. Vague means not thoroughly described. Cliché is used to describe a word, phrase, or event that is overused (ex. happily ever after, love at first sight)

Identify two examples of irony in 'Toy Story of Terror' and explain how each of these examples is ironic.
Evgen [1.6K]

I think this is what you're asking?

The way the toys speak is ironic because they are toys and shouldn't speak...

The next ironic part is they actually give the toys a life of their own, letting them go on missions to save someone or get something or hide from somebody. It's ironic they would do that when they are just plastic toys.


Dramatic irony is a stylistic literary analysis tool used in movies, theaters, plays, and sometimes in poetry elements , where the audience are more aware of the situations, conflicts, and resolutions that happened and are about to occur compared to the characters involved. This helps add suspense and humor to every plot. But there are instances when dramatic irony isn’t as explicit as it is in the source material. This usually takes place when a famous novel or book proposal is turned into a movie or play, as those who have already read the material know what to expect in the film, and vice versa.

name three characteristics of a short story. Name three types of conflict found in stories. Name the three types of characters a
Jlenok [28]

Hey! The answer your teacher is looking for might be subjective. That said, my response might not be correct even if it's valid.

Characteristics:

* Story presents clear, fast worldbuilding

* Story can convey a comprehensive theme in a short period of time

* Story has a concise narrative without dragging / rushing through key points.

Conflict:

A 2004 book by Christopher Booker lists 7 widely recognized archetypes for storytelling:

Overcoming the Monster

Rags to Riches

The Quest

Voyage and Return

Comedy

Tragedy

Rebirth

I'm gonna assume you can guess the conflict(s) of each archetype based on the names; just choose three of them.

Characters:

This is very subjective, but the most obvious answer is a protagonist, antagonist, and static / flat character (doesn't change throughout the story, serves some kind of supporting role).

Conditions:

Time and place; since it's such a simple answer, your teacher probably wants you to explain how these factors affect character behavior / the progression of a story.

I hope this helped!
