What is ironic that Billy finally has on him after the bombing that he didn’t have earlier in the war?
BabaBlast [244]

That Billy finally has a<u> gun</u> on him after the bombing that he didn’t have earlier in the war is ironic. Hence, the correct answer is option C. a gun.

<h3>What is an irony?</h3>

An irony is a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often wryly amusing as a result. An irony is also a literary device, originally used in Greek tragedy, through which the essence of a character's words or actions is clear to the audience or reader although unknown to the character.

Therefore, the fact that Billy finally has a gun on him after the bombing that he didn’t have earlier in the war is ironic for it was of no use anymore as at the time he has it.

C. Activate yourself
slega [8]

Answer:

Well its a often heard thing.

Explanation:

Words can cause more damage than the sword. The intellectual doesn't picks weapon but they pick pen, the sword that doesn't make destroy you at once, the sword which can't reverse its effect, a sword which cannot be used by everyone. The sword of the intellectual is the pen.

Governments were build, they fall. Monarchies were formed and were uprooted, rules were made and were broked. Peace happened and wars ended, this is what we can say is the strength of this 10 cm sword, the sword which cannot be used with irresponsibility of thoughts, its for the pure form of genius and not any day one guy. Men and women have made history on its nib, the world today at points stays free or captive by the nib of this sword. This is what the power of words are, that comes out of it.
