What kind of irony is "The competitors for this office sought as diligently to please overseers, as the office seekers in the political parties seek to please and deceive the people"
Answer:
Verbal Irony.
Explanation:
Verbal irony is described as the literary device when there is a discrepancy between the literal and implied meaning of the author's words. In the given sentence, the author uses the words 'competitors' to denote 'slaves' who are attempting diligently to please their owners('overseers') so that they might get better treatment or appraisal to the great house farm by using the idea of 'office seekers pleading to the political parties.' Thus, this contradiction between the words used and intended meaning suggests the use of verbal irony.

Answer:
Something like this perhaps?
The other day, I sat on a bench in my local park to quietly overserve my surrounds without disturbing them. It wasn't long before I noticed two people who I assume were dating by their closeness and intimate way of walking. They appeared to be having a normal conversation, the female seeming to occasionally giggle at something the male said. It then seemed like the male had said something that made the female let go of the mans hand and suddenly stop walking, her facial expression changing to show she was upset about something that had been said. The male on the other hand seemed confused and unsure of what he had said to anger the woman, quickly attempting to calm her down and figure out what had upset her. She continued to make angry motions with her arms before stomping away with the man following closely behind her.

Which of the following choices most closely describes how the women in the crowd feel about Hester's punishment?
A Her punishment was not harsh enough
B. She should have been put to death for her actions.
C. Having to live with her shame is enough of a punishment.
D. er punishment
was appropriate for her crime. Can someone help me out please!!!!!!!!
The women in the crowd wanted Hester to be put a death sentence for her actions. Therefore, option (B): "She should have been put to death for her actions" is the correct answer.
Why do women in the crowd want the death sentence?She is put in jail, made to raise her daughter Pearl, forced to wear a giant letter A on her chest for the rest of her life, and publicly humiliated on a scaffold.
Many residents of the town believe that Hester got off too lightly despite the fact that the written penalty for adultery is death. The leaders believed that continuing to live in disgrace would be worse for her.
Additionally, they wouldn't execute the baby by putting the mother to death before delivery.
The death penalty is the standard punishment for adultery, but the Massachusetts magistrates opted against giving Hester that punishment because they believed she was "seriously seduced to her fall" and that "her husband may be at the bottom of the sea."

B. personal identity
O C. multiple perspectives
O D. all of the above
Idkkkk
Answer:
C). Multiple Perspectives
Explanation:
A perspective is defined as an 'outlook' or 'point of view' to consider things. An individual's perspective to view things is highly determined by his/her personality and experiences in life. It also implies considering something in an accurate and fair framework. For example, an educated and mature person would have a broader perspective to look at the world and understand the causes and consequences associated with specific actions, processes, etc. while a younger one may not be able to see the world in such a wider framework and consider it a belief. Thus, 'multiple perspectives' implies 'viewing the same situation using various viewpoints which all are valid.'

Which of the following is an example of direct characterization of Gouvernail?
Answer:
This question is incomplete since you have not provided the options and I could not have them online.
Anyway I will give you an explanation so that you can understand it and answer it for yourself.
Explanation:
Characterization is a literary technique that serves to develop the personality and characteristics of the characters in a story. There are two types of characterization: direct and indirect.
Direct Characterization: It is where the author provides explicit details about the characters. For example, it tells us their state of mind, their beliefs, their way of living, their desires, etc. Indirect Characterization: In this case, these characteristics will not be expressed explicitly, but rather will be left to the interpretation of the reader. The author will only provide small character traits for us as readers to determine the rest.
Therefore, with this information, if among your options you have explicit descriptions of how a character looks, feels or thinks, then that will be your correct answer.

PETROCELLI Then he must have lied, is that right?
O’BRIEN Objection. The prosecution is soliciting an argument.
PETROCELLI Withdrawn. Mr. Harmon, you say you weren’t at the drugstore anytime during the day of the robbery. Perhaps you would tell us where you were.
Based on this dialogue, what can the reader infer?
This is Petrocelli's first time acting as the prosecuting attorney in a court of law.
Mr. Harmon knows where he was during the day of the robbery.
It is a rule of the court that a lawyer may not argue with someone during questioning.
Petrocelli has not been a trial lawyer as long as O'Brien has.
Answer:
Petrocelli was the opposition lawyer in the court and his client Mr. Harmon was getting questioned. Since Mr. Harmon was the suspect, he was known where he was at the time of robbery.
Explanation:
Petrocelli has been opposition lawyer in the court against O'BRIEN. His client was asked about his presence at the drug store during the time of robbery. When Petrocelli interrupted in between the question of the lawyer, there has been an Objection asked by the lawyer, and he continued to ask Mr. Harmon about his presence and his day. Mr. Harmon was questioned as he was the suspect and asked where he was if he was not present at drug store.
Petrocelli has been in the court and being working as prosecution, which is gained after experience. So, this can't be his first time acting as a lawyer.
During a court argument there has been continuous questioning, and interruption are allowed for the genuine questions which are out of league. So it can't be the court rule.
The time period of working of Petrocelli and O'Brien has not been mentioned. From this information we can't conclude about there working experience. So, we can't say that O'Brien is working from long as compared to Petrocelli.
So, this concluded that Mr. Harmon was known where he was during the day of the robbery.
