There wasn't too much of a reaction in the crowd, as to them he was just another dead African-American person. Read chapter 25 over to possibly understand better.
Answer:
Sarcastic
Explanation:
The author's tone in this line from William Dean Howells's "Editha" can be described as sarcastic.
This is because while he introduces himself as Balcom from Balcom's Works in New York, he means the opposite because he does not own a company.
okay i read it, what's the question?
Answer:
I will answer this to the best of my ability according to what I assume is the reason for the fight.
Explanation:
Irony is when something happens that you didn't expect to, and it can be funny or dramatic. Let's look at the answers:
A. I'm pretty sure Gill stole Victor's $500, which is why they fight. What would you expect from a fight where one person stole the other's money? There are usually only two conclusions: one person wins the fight and takes back his money, or the other person wins and runs away. Option "A" is one of those two expected outcomes, so it is not ironic.
B. While this isn't the most expected outcome, it certainly isn't unexpected. One person is bound to win the fight, and maybe the other begs for mercy. Even though it isn't one of the most obvious endings, it isn't that unexpected.
C. Now, this is a totally unexpected outcome. These two guys are fighting over Victor's money, while Victor already has the money without him knowing. That is not expected.
D. This is not unexpected. It is expected. Two guys are fighting, it could possibly end their friendship
The answer is C. The cash was in Victor's pocket the whole time, but he loses it
while he is fighting Gil. This is the most unexpected outcome, and most ironic.
Tense is the answer
