Read the exchange between jane and mr. rochester before she leaves to attend her aunt and answer the question.

"how long will you stay? "

"as short a time as possible, sir."

"promise me only to stay a week—"

"i had better not pass my word: i might be obliged to break it."

"at all events you will come back: you will not be induced under any pretext to take up a permanent residence with her? "

"oh, no! i shall certainly return if all be well." . .

mr. rochester meditated. "when do you wish to go? "

"early to-morrow morning, sir."

"well, you must have some money; you can't travel without money, and i daresay you have not much: i have given you no salary yet. how much have you in the world, jane? " he asked, smiling.

i drew out my purse; a meagre thing it was. "five shillings, sir." he took the purse, poured the hoard into his palm, and chuckled over it as if its scantiness amused him. soon he produced his pocket-book: "here," said he, offering me a note; it was fifty pounds, and he owed me but fifteen. i told him i had no change.

"i don't want change; you know that. take your wages."

i declined accepting more than was my due. he scowled at first; then, as if recollecting something, he said—

"right, right! better not give you all now: you would, perhaps, stay away three months if you had fifty pounds. there are ten; is it not plenty? "

"yes, sir, but now you owe me five."

"come back for it, then; i am your banker for forty pounds."

brontë incorporates a touch of dramatic irony into this exchange because readers can guess that mr. rochester does not even though jane is unaware of his feelings.

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. ‘you make me feel uncivilized, daisy,’ i confessed on my second glass of corky but rather impressive claret. ‘can’t you talk about crops or something? ’ i meant nothing in particular by this remark but it was taken up in an unexpected way. ‘civilization’s going to pieces,’ broke out tom violently. ‘i’ve gotten to be a terrible pessimist about things. have you read ‘the rise of the coloured empires’ by this man goddard? ’ ‘why, no,’ i answered, rather surprised by his tone. ‘well, it’s a fine book, and everybody ought to read it. the idea is if we don’t look out the white race will be—will be utterly submerged. it’s all scientific stuff; it’s been proved.’ in this passage, tom’s ideas about race relations come off as uncivilized. what literary device is fitzgerald using here? irony personification metaphor simile
