Answer:
C. Glumdalclitch
Explanation:
In Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels," after Gulliver leaves Lilliput, where people are small and he is a giant, he arrives in Brobdingnag, where he is small and people are gigantic. Thus, <u>the name he gives the Farmer's daughter, Glumdalclitch, meaning "little nurse," is ironical, since the girl's size is huge</u> and she enjoys playing with Gulliver like a doll. However, Gulliver has affection for her and is pleased to entertain her.
Atticus did not want his children in court because he knew they would be exposed to the lies, deceit, and racism endemic to the society in which his family resided and because of the abuse that would invariably be heaped upon his children's father by virtue of his willingness to defend Tom Robinson.
Answer:
The type of irony used in the excerpt is dramatic irony.
Explanation:
Dramatic irony is related to a situation in which readers know and understand something that the characters themselves don't.<u> In this case, readers know Janet is in trouble for agreeing to wear the sweater.</u> We know she no longer has it because she exchanged it for the boots. As a matter of fact, we know she hated the sweater when she got it, and lied to Bobby saying she loved it.
<u>Bobby, however, is clueless to all that. He believes Janet still has the sweater, and is upset that she does not seem to appreciate the expensive gift. Bobby has no idea of the "pickle" Janet is in because of his demand. That is why this is an example of dramatic irony.</u>
