Question:

COUNTY ATTORNEY (facetiously). Well, Henry, at least we found out that she was not going to quilt it. She was going to—what is it you call it, ladies!

MRS. HALE (her hand against her pocket). We call it—knot it, Mr. Henderson.

How is this excerpt an example of irony?

A. The lighthearted and humorous tone of the County Attorney is the opposite of what you would expect during a situation like this.

B. A show of interest in the quilt on the men's behalf was a sudden twist of what would normally be expected.

C. The County Attorney appeared to be asking a question about the quilt, but he was actually asking another question entirely.

D. It appeared as though Mrs. Hale was answering the question, but she actually meant something quite different with her response.

D. It appeared as though Mrs. Hale was answering the question, but she actually meant something quite different with her response.

Explanation:

An irony is an expression that uses language skillfully to portray or make a point. One uses language in this expression in an opposite manner to what one actually means(often obvious) to emphasize the persons view or point. Here Mrs. Hale gave the normal answer to the question but was actually emphasizing another meaning. irony is often used in an amusing or wryly manner.

my man just wants some puu

explanation:

glass wants to live in a world of super heroes and villains. he have lived all his life trying to be responsible for the creating the origin story of a super hero; he schemed and caused many incidents (many of them fatal) hoping that someday someone with superpowers would show up and save the day.

he knew himself very much. he saw himself as a villain of a real-life super hero story. he was aware of his strengths (more than smart enough for being manipulative and scheming) and weaknesses (having fragile bones and having to rely on his mind to succeed).
