Jamile is recording secretary of our school's student council. His primary job is to take notes at

Which phrase would add VERBAL IRONY to the paragraph?
take too much time to read
include minor details
run longer than the meetings
aren't sufficiently brief

Answers

Answer 1

I think you should add something that would be kinda funny like a dog trainer is scared of a dog, that is irony

Answer 2

The phrase that would add verbal irony to the paragraph is "aren't sufficiently brief".

What is verbal irony?

Verbal irony is defined as a statement in which the speaker's words contradict the speaker's intent.

The speaker says one thing but means another, creating an ironic conflict between their intended meaning and their literal words.

A figure of speech in which words are used in such a way that their intended meaning differs from their literal meaning is known as verbal irony.

In this case, including the phrase "aren't sufficiently brief" would result in verbal irony because Jamile's summaries are so detailed that they are actually too long, despite his intention to keep them brief.

The phrase would be diametrically opposed to what is expected or reality, producing a humorous or sarcastic effect.

Thus, the answer is "aren't sufficiently brief".

Look at the following commentary on "Cupid and Psyche" from Bulfinch's Mythology. The fable of Cupid and Psyche is usually considered allegorical. The Greek name for a butterfly is Psyche, and the same word means the soul. There is no illustration of the immortality of the soul so striking and beautiful as the butterfly, bursting on brilliant wings from the tomb in which it has lain, after a dull, groveling caterpillar existence, to flutter in the blaze of day and feed on the most fragrant and delicate productions of the spring. Psyche, then, is the human soul, which is purified by sufferings and misfortunes, and is thus prepared for the enjoyment of true and pure happiness. In your journal, reflect on Bulfinch's analysis of the story's theme. Do you agree or disagree with his analysis? Why or why not? What new questions does this analysis of "Cupid and Psyche" bring to mind? Can you answer them? If not, does it matter? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Well slightly you could say that it being called "allegorical" would go with the theme, the theme may be jealousy which could be the reason Venus gave all the nearly impossible (and inevitable) tasks to do, although Venus was possibly jealous because of Cupid liking Psyche and Psyche being mortal.  

The statement fits with the theme of the story, because it wasn't made clear or stated that Venus was jealous, it used her actions to foreshadow (is that the right word for it?) the theme. Similar to how Psyche means soul and butterfly and how her soul is made immortal, like a transition for a caterpillar to a butterfly.

(for the sake of you not having it given back, edit it to look like you wrote it pls. this was my actual answer for this question when i got it)

Well, in a way, you could say that the fact that it is called "allegorical" fits with the theme; the theme might be jealousy, which might explain why Venus gave everyone the nearly impossible tasks to complete. Venus may have been jealous because Cupid liked Psyche and Psyche was mortal, but that doesn't necessarily mean that Venus was.

What do you know about Bulfinch's ?

Thomas Bulfinch, an American banker and Latinist, gathered a number of myth and legend tales that he revised for a general readership and had published as Bulfinch's Mythology after his demise in 1867. By the work, English-speaking readers were successfully introduced to Greek mythology.

It was "one of the most popular books ever published in the United States and the standard work on classical mythology for nearly a century," according to Carl J. Richard and John Talbot of Brigham Young University, up until the release of classicist Edith Hamilton's 1942 book Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes.

Answers

Answer:

Both

Explanation:

It would be both a good and bad change if Ponyboy, Soda, and Darry had to live separately.

On the one hand, it would provide everyone of them with the chance to advance personally. They would be allowed to decide for themselves and develop self-reliance. They would grow more autonomous and self-sufficient as a result, which could be a good experience.

However, Ponyboy, Soda, and Darry would find it difficult to be apart from their brothers. They share a strong bond and rely on one another for support. They would miss out on time together and each other's support during trying times if they were separated.

As they would feel alone and isolated, this could be a bad experience for them.In the end, it would depend on several things, including Ponyboy, Soda, and Darry's particular personalities and how they handled the change, whether or not being separated was a beneficial or negative shift for them.

July
by Susan Hartley Swett

When the scarlet cardinal tells
Her dream to the dragonfly,
And the lazy breeze makes a nest in the trees,
And murmurs a lullaby,
It's July.

When the tangled cobweb pulls
The cornflower's cap awry,
And the lilies tall lean over the wall
To bow to the butterfly,
It's July.

When the heat like a mist veil floats,
And poppies flame in the rye,
And the silver note in the streamlet's throat
Has softened almost to a sigh,
It's July.

When the hours are so still that time
Forgets them, and lets them lie
Underneath petals pink till the night stars wink
At the sunset in the sky,
It's July.

What do the noises that the speaker calls out—the lullaby the breeze murmurs and the soft sigh of the streamlet—represent in "July"?

A. the speaker's desire to break from the laziness of summer

B. the startling beauty of summer days

C. the peacefulness of the long, slow days of summer.

D. the intense heat of mid-summer days

Answers

Answer:

C.) The peacefulness of the long, slow days of summer.

Explanation:

During the poem, it explains how every little thing is blooming slowly in summer. It also says, "When the hours are so still that time

Forgets them" this means that the time is going by very slowly so the days are long. While they explain about all of the nature it makes the poem peaceful. I also took the test and this is 100% correct.

propaganda will over exaggerate and skew things to fit one narrative. if someone happens to not exactly know a context of a situation, it can be very misleading, and this is how it’s used as a weapon.

In some instances, propaganda is used to dehumanise and incite hatred toward an alleged adversary, whether internal or foreign, by instilling a false perception of that enemy in the minds of soldiers and civilians.

What is Prpaganda ?

Propaganda will exaggerate and manipulate information to fit a particular narrative. It can be incredibly deceptive if someone does not precisely understand the context of a situation, and this is how it is employed as a weapon.propaganda against the military of the enemy.

Propaganda was employed against opponents as well as to try and sway public opinion in neutral nations. All sides have employed aeroplanes and balloons to drop flyers and posters over warring troops and civilians since the beginning of the war.

Wartime propaganda needs to targetto lower opponent spirits. To undermine the will to fight is one of propaganda's main goals when it is directed against hostile nations. It makes many attempts to weaken the enemy's resolve to resist. One is to envision the military triumphs from the propagandist's perspective.
