Answer:
"He is an ignoramus," interrupted my friend, as he stepped unsteadily forward."
Explanation:
A situational irony is a form of irony where the expected event is completely opposite of the outcome. And in Edgar Allen Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado," there are several instances of such situational irony.
One instance of situational irony is when Fortunato calls Luchesi a fool, an idiot. "He is an ignoramus," interrupted my friend, as he stepped unsteadily forward." This is a case of situational irony in that Fortunato calls someone a fool while he himself is also walking towards his death, being fooled by Montresor. While criticizing someone, he is also doing the same thing. And in the end, he is "walled in" by Montresor.
Read this sentence from the passage.
Then I can hear the small sounds: the sound of water dripping
from the mussels on the ceiling or of water dripping from
seaweeds that line the walls-small, silver splashes losing
themselves in the vastness of the pool and in the confused,
murmurous whisperings that emanate from the pool itself-the
pool that is never quite still.
What is the most likely reason the author includes the sentence
in the passage?
O to explain why the tidal pool is in a constant state of motion
O to show that some aspects of the tidal pool are difficult to understand
O to prove to the reader that the tidal pool is an experience for all of the
senses
to help the reader feel that he or she is experiencing the tidal pool
with the author

Answer:
O to prove to the reader that the tidal pool is an experience for all of the
senses
Explanation:
y3 + x for x = 6 and y = 1
Answer: 9
Explanation:
To solve this, you'd first have to substitute the values of x and y. Since x=6 and y=1, all you have to do is plug them in.
Equation: (1)3+6
Next, all you have to do is solve. Since 3(1)=3, and 6+3=9, the value of the expression is equal to 9.
**Unless the 3 is an exponent. It didn't look like it to me but I solved that as well just in case***
y³+x
1. Substitute
(1)³+6
2. Solve
1³= 1 and 1+6=7
So, the answer is 7 (again, this is only if the 3 is an exponent. I couldn't tell)...

Read the beginning of "The Frog Prince" by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. In the olden time, when wishing was having, there lived a King, whose daughters were all beautiful; but the youngest was so exceedingly beautiful that the Sun himself, although he saw her very, very often, was delighted every time she came out into the sunshine. Near the castle of this King was a large and gloomy forest, where in the midst stood an old lime-tree, beneath whose branches splashed a little fountain; so, whenever it was very hot, the King's youngest daughter ran off into this wood, and sat down by the side of the fountain, and, when she felt dull, would often divert herself by throwing a golden ball up into the air and catching it again. And this was her favorite amusement In this excerpt, narration is used to O show the king's point of view. O introduce a character O describe the rising action. O develop the conflict.

Explanation:
We use the imperative form to give orders, instructions, or to warn someone about something. To write sentences in the imperative form, we have to write the verb in the infinitive, and if it is a negative command, we have to write the do not or don't and the verb in the infinitive.
For example, if we want to give an instruction, we can say -Turn on the right- the verb is in the infinite form, the subject may or may not be present since the person can deduce to whom we are saying the command. An example of a sentence where we use the negative form can be - Don't run in the hallways- In this case, we use the auxiliary verb do and the auxiliary not followed by the verb.

Theme constitutional monarchy
Discuss the pros and cons of having a monarchy in contract to being a republic?
Give me at least 4 pros and cons!
(I will give the "brainliest" to the best answer!)
Answer: Brainliest?
Advantages of a constitutional monarchy:
Stability. The head of state is appointed for a very long perdiod of time, usually until she/he abdicates or die. This gives the country more stability in comparison with republics where the head of state changes every few years.
Education. In a monarchy, the future head of state is known from birth, therefore she/he is raised and educated accordingly. Monarchs are usually well prepared for their role and enjoy a priviledged multidisciplinary education.
Neutrality. The head of state is not a politician, therefore is not tied to any particular party. She/he can ensure neutrality and balance while in power.
No election cost. In many countries, the campaign to elect the head of state can be very expensive. In monarchy, succession has little costs.
Less corruption? Advocates of constitutional monarchy claim that knowing you will serve for a life term reduces the risk of corruption, while an elected politician may feel the urge to take advantage of his position knowing it will not last. Presidents may have shorter term goals and incentives, while the monarch may care more about the long term. After all they want their children to inherit the throne and don't want them to have to face a complicated future.
Disadvantages of a constitutional monarchy:
Lack of democracy. The head of state is not elected and inherits the position. The citizen have little to say about who will reign, although in most constitutional monarchies the monarchs needs the approval of the Parliament, and therefore, indirectly of the people this institution represents.
Not every monarch is competent. The head of state may have been prepared to reign, but this does not guarantee that this particular person is suitable and competent for the position. HIstory is full of incompetent, arrongant, tyrannic or careless monarchs.
Monarchs are people; therefore have personal beliefs and political preferences, often they are quite conservative. Their views and beliefs may be at odds with those of the majority in their country.
Royal families often have a very expensive lifestyle. In addition to the king or queen, other members of the royalty also receive public salaries and perks. Moreover simply organizing their trips and security is very costly. Although we should keep in mind that presidents and prime ministers in republics are also costly, sometimes more than monarchs.
More corruption? Sometimes justice is permissive with the abuses of royal families. They are somehow protected because it is not in the interest of the country to see their figures delegitimized. However, this also creates an incentive for members of the royal families to abuse sometimes their status.

In a clear and detailed manner
I remember well the remark made to me once by one of my teachers—and a very good teacher, too, who nevertheless did not see what her own observation ought to have suggested. “School-children,” she said, “regard teachers as their natural enemies.” The thought which it would have been logical to suppose would have followed this observation is, that if children in general are possessed of that notion, it is because there is a great deal in the teacher’s treatment of them which runs counter to the child’s nature: that possibly this is so, not because of natural cussedness on the part of the child, but because of inapplicability of the knowledge taught, or the manner of teaching it, or both, to the mental and physical needs of the child. I am quite sure no such thought entered my teacher’s mind,—at least regarding the system of knowledge to be imposed; being a sensible woman, she perhaps occasionally admitted to herself that she might make mistakes in applying the rules, but that the body of knowledge to be taught was indispensable, and must somehow be injected into children’s heads, under threat of punishment, if necessary, I am sure she never questioned. It did not occur to her any more than to most teachers, that the first business of an educator should be to find out what are the needs, aptitudes, and tendencies of children, before he or she attempts to outline a body of knowledge to be taught, or rules for teaching it. It does not occur to them that the child’s question, “What do I have to learn that for?” is a perfectly legitimate question; and if the teacher cannot answer it to the child’s satisfaction, something is wrong either with the thing taught, or with the teaching; either the thing taught is out of rapport with the child’s age, or his natural tendencies, or his condition of development; or the method by which it is taught repels him, disgusts him, or at best fails to interest him.
When a child says, “I don’t see why I have to know that; I can’t remember it anyway,” he is voicing a very reasonable protest. Of course, there are plenty of instances of wilful shirking, where a little effort can overcome the slackness of memory; but every teacher who is honest enough to reckon with himself knows he cannot give a sensible reason why things are to be taught which have so little to do with the child’s life that to-morrow, or the day after examination, they will be forgotten; things which he himself could not remember were he not repeating them year in and year out, as a matter of his trade. And every teacher who has thought at all for himself about the essential nature of the young humanity he is dealing with, knows that six hours of daily herding and in-penning of young, active bodies and limbs, accompanied by the additional injunction that no feet are to be shuffled, no whispers exchanged, and no paper wads thrown, is a frightful violation of all the laws of young life. Any gardener who should attempt to raise healthy, beautiful, and fruitful plants by outraging all those plants’ instinctive wants and searchings, would meet as his reward—sickly plants, ugly plants, sterile plants, dead plants. He will not do it; he will watch very carefully to see whether they like much sunlight, or considerable shade, whether they thrive on much water or get drowned in it, whether they like sandy soil, or fat mucky soil; the plant itself will indicate to him when he is doing the right thing. And every gardener will watch for indications with great anxiety. If he finds the plant revolts against his experiments, he will desist at once, and try something else; if he finds it thrives, he will emphasize the particular treatment so long as it seems beneficial. But what he will surely not do, will be to prepare a certain area of ground all just alike, with equal chances of sun and amount of moisture in every part, and then plant everything together without discrimination,—mighty close together!—saying beforehand, “If plants don’t want to thrive on this, they ought to want to; and if they are stubborn about it, they must be made to.”
In the second sentence of the second paragraph, the repetition of the word “things” primarily serves to
qualify a claim by acknowledging an exception to it
A
portray contrasting viewpoints as equally legitimate
B
clarify an argument by restating it in simpler terms
C
illustrate a generalization with a particular case
D
strengthen an assertion by broadening its implications
E
Answer:
Its E Strengthen an assertion by broadening its implications 100%
Explanation:
In these lines, the author uses repetition to organize two assertions about the “things” that children are taught. She first asserts that these “things” have so little relevance that children will quickly forget them. She then broadens this assertion to apply to teachers, stating that they too would forget these “things” if they were not constantly repeating them on the job. By arranging these ideas in this way, the author strengthens her initial assertion about the reason that children have trouble remembering and supports her overarching claim that it is “reasonable” for children to protest that they cannot retain what they are expected to learn.

The theme represented in the first scene of "The Crucible" is the search for freedom and the suppression of desires. This theme is established and reinforced by the girls who were in the forest.
Who were these girls?Betty.Abigail.Tituba.A mysterious girl.In the first scene of the first act of "The Crucible" we see Reverend Parris confronting Abigail about her, Betty, Tituba, and a mysterious girl who was running through the woods, dancing and talking intelligibly words, outside Salem city, at midnight, in the forest.
These girls live in a puritanical society that sets very strict norms that limit people's actions, create intolerance and prevent each individual from exercising their own will.
With this context, the reader could perceive that the girls were acting outside the established standards in society and outside the city where these standards are applied, which establishes the theme that the suppression of desires leads to the search for freedom.
