Give three clues that indicate that the poet is taking a humorous tone in this poem.

English

tigry1 [53]2 years ago

We can see the humorous tone when the speaker claims that the cat is a master of crime, a cat that breaks human rules, and a monster of depravity.

This can be seen in the following lines:

  • For he's the criminal master who can defy the Law.
  • He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity.
  • For he's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravity.

These lines show the humorous tone in the poem, as it exaggeratedly presents the cat as if this animal were a cruel and cunning creature, but we know that animals are not like that.

By portraying the animal in this way, the poet shows humor, as he places the animal above humans and with non-standard features.

It is important to remember that the tone of a poem is the feeling the poet wants to convey through the reading.

Give one reason why the handicapper general considers harrison a threat to society
fenix001 [56]

The main reason Harrison Bergeron is considered a threat in the eponymously titled short story is that he is able to rip off of his handicaps and make himself the self-proclaimed "Emperor," thereby removing control of the authoritarian regime that needs all of its citizens to weaken themselves and obey government  commands.
