What is a situational irony

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Hi! Piper here.

Forgive me if I'm incorrect, but situational irony is when you expect something to happen, but something else happens that's extremely different from what you were expecting. Situational irony is usually comedic.


Example:

Bob is told that it will rain. He brings his umbrella outside. It did not rain, and Bob was left out in the sun. Bob goes to his house to put away his umbrella, but right when he steps outside it starts to rain heavily!

Answer 2
Answer:

Situational irony is when there is an event or action happening and you expect it to play out a certain way but it plays out in a different way. So it's something that you did not expect or intend to happen.

What characteristics suggest that the secondexample is written in blank verse?
o no rhyme, ten syllables to a line, and no
pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables
no rhyme, ten syllables to a line, and pairs of
syllables in which the second syllable is
stressed
a rhyme scheme, a different number of
syllables per line, and the use of repetition
no rhyme, a different number of syllables per
line, and a pattern of stressed and unstressed
syllables

Answers

Answer:

The second option: no rhyme, ten syllables to a line, and pairs of syllables in which the second syllable is stressed.

Explanation:

Blank verse poetry or prose has the following characteristics:

  • Blank verse does not rhyme.
  • Blank verse is an iambic pentamer which means that the verse, consisting of ten syllables per line, has an alternate pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables.
  • Blank verse has a characteristic pattern: the unstressed syllable follows the stressed one.

The characteristics suggest that the second example written in blank verse is "no rhyme, ten syllables to a line, and pairs of syllables in which the second syllable is stressed".

Poetry in blank verse has regular cadences but no rhyme. An unstressed syllable is followed by an unstressed syllable, and there are typically 10 syllables per line.

Per line, this pattern repeats five times. Iambic pentameter without rhyme is another name for this form.

Because only characters of higher rank often talk in blank verse, while characters of lesser status typically speak in prose, blank verse is employed to identify the status of a character.

Therefore, the correct option is "no rhyme, ten syllables to a line, and pairs of syllables in which the second syllable is stressed".

Sonnets are lyric poems that often contain figurative language. Which two parts of Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 are examples of repetition?

Answers

Answer: The two parts are 1) "Love is not love / Which alters when it alteration finds" and 2) "Or bends with the remover to remove."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that in this famous sonnet William Shakespeare described love, by contending what it is and what it is not. In these lines the writer is saying that love is not love when it changes because the beloved one has changed and it does not disappear when he or she has departed. By repeating the same words or words with the same root - love, love, alters, alteration, remover, remove - Shakespeare was able to emphasize his message and to create a more effective emotional response on the reader.  

The answer could be:

"Love is not love  Which alters when it alteration finds,"  and "Or bends with the remover to remove".

Which sentence has a misplaced adjective phrase? A. An engineer from Chicago bought the new house. B. The jeans with blue lace are the ones I wear the most. C. The boy with the soft voice seems so excited. D. Two blue jays kept a watchful eye on the dog in a tree.

Answers

The correct answer is D. Because 'in a tree' is misplaced, we don't know whether the dog is in the tree, or if two blue jays are.
