Which of the following is evidence of irony in the story "gift of the magi? " a. "jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. she held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. the dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit." b. "dell," said he, "let's put our christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. they're too nice to use just at present. i sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. and now suppose you put the chops on." c. "jim stopped inside the door, as immovable as a setter at the scent of quail. his eyes were fixed upon della, and there was an expression in them that she could not read, and it terrified her." d. "but in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. o all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. everywhere they are wisest. they are the magi."

Read the following excerpt from life on the mississippi by mark twain. no girl could withstand his charms. he "cut out" every boy in the village. when his boat blew up at last, it diffused a tranquil contentment among us such as we had not known for months. but when he came home the next week, alive, renowned, and appeared in church all battered up and bandaged, a shining hero, stared at and wondered over by everybody, it seemed to us that the partiality of providence for an undeserving reptile had reached a point where it was open to criticism. how does twain's use of understatement serve his purpose? be sure to use specific details from the text to support your answer.
