Explanation:

We have all had those things that appear in our lives and for awhile bring us joy. Just for a little bit. Or maybe it’s the things we wish for, wait the longest for, and once we get it it’s not what we thought it’d be. The most popular of these things would be money. We all think that getting money would make our lives a lot easier, less stressful, and the biggest misconception, happier. But, in the short story “Why, You Reckon?” Langston Hughes uses irony, dialogue and character development to show the audience that money can’t buy you happiness.

In the beginning of this short story, Hughes uses amazing character development to introduce the narrator, who is also the main character.  

It starts off, “Well, sir, I ain’t never been mixed up in nothing wrong before nor since, and I don’t intend to be again, but I was hongry that night. Indeed, I was!”. From this, the reader has an idea that this character is most likely poor, uneducated, and isn’t a trouble maker. Looking at the way the character speaks, diction, you could also get a sense of the time period, which was around the Second World War.

During the falling action, through narration, the reader sees the situational irony. After meeting a stranger and going along with the plan to rob another stranger, the narrator gets nothing. “And, man, don’t you know he went on from that basement and took all that stuff!

Left me standing just as empty-handed as when I come in there. Yes, sir! He left me with that white boy standing in the coal. He’d done took the money, the diamonds, and everythin’, even the shoes! And me nothing!”. While the reader was expecting the narrator to split half of the stolen items with the other fellow, the other fellow ended up conning him and taking it all for himself.

Getting closer to the end of the story, Hughes uses dialogue to showcase even more situational irony. The reader, expecting the “white fellow” to be terrified, is shocked by the robbery victim’s reaction.

•Three examples to support the idea:

1.The most popular of these things would be money. We all think that getting money would make our lives a lot easier, less stressful, and the biggest misconception.

2.Money does not buy happiness or health. You can have all the money in the world but with that you don't buy more years to life

3.You can get to commit bad acts to get money.

4.Money comes and goes. Not life

the legal limit for the drivers who can drive after consuming any amount of alcohol is 21 years.

explanation:

on november 1, 1996, a "zero tolerance law" was put into effect in the new york state.

according to this zero tolerance law, for people under the age of 21 years, it was illegal to purchase and possess alcohol or to drive after consuming any amount of it.

also, the alcohol involvement rate for the drivers under the age of 21 was roughly twice that of elderly drivers.
