I NEED HELP
5. As the holiday season ended, Bertha Berger struggled to put on her blue jeans. They
seemed much tighter than usual, so she stepped on the bathroom scale and received
the bad news. She had never seen such a high number on the little scale, so she
resolved to change. That day she threw out all the junk food in her fridge and went
grocery shopping. Determined to lose weight, she bought low-fat versions of all her
favorite foods. She had a low-sodium bacon sandwich with a diet soda for lunch. The
sandwich contained over 1,200 calories but very little salt. For dinner she ate two turkey
burgers with reduced-fat cheese. Though she had consumed over 2,000 calories,
Bertha felt like she deserved a reward. So for dessert she ate two low-calorie ice-cream
sandwiches. And before bed she ate a bag of baked potato chips, which are healthier
than normal chips. She dipped them in low-fat cream cheese. Bertha had consumed
around 6,500 calories that day, but she felt skinny. When she woke up the next morning,
she stepped on the scale. She couldn't wait to see how successful her diet had been.

Which type of irony is used?
Explain your

there are 3 ironys to choose from

dramatic irony-this occurs when the reader or audience understands more about the events of a story than a character

situational irony-this occurs when what actually happens is the opposite of what is expected or appropriate

verbal irony-a person or character says one thing but really means the opposite

I already chose situational and got it wrong

I need an explanation to what you choose.

    i got this from a website called shmoop. i will give you a link and i will show you half of it. hope it : )

explanation:

mrs. mallard has a heart condition, which means that if she's startled she could die. so, when news comes that her husband's been killed in an accident, the people who tell her have to cushion the blow.

mrs. mallard's sister josephine sits down with her and dances around the truth until mrs. mallard finally understands what happened. the deceased mr. mallard's friend, richards, hangs out with them for moral support.

richards originally found out because he had been in the newspaper headquarters when a report of the accident that killed mr. mallard, which happened on a train, came through. richards waited for proof from a second source before going to the mallards' to share the news.

when mrs. mallard finds out what happened she acts differently from most women in the same position, who might disbelieve it. she cries passionately before deciding to go to her room to be by herself.

in her room, mrs. mallard sits down on a comfy chair and feels completely depleted. she looks out the window and looks out at a world that seems alive and fresh. she can see the sky coming between the rain clouds.

mrs. mallard sits still, occasionally crying briefly like a kid might.

the narrator describes her as youthful and pretty, but because of this news she looks preoccupied and absent.

she seems to be holding out for some kind of unknown news or knowledge, which she can tell is approaching.

mrs. mallard breathes heavily and tries to resist before succumbing to this unknown thing, which is a feeling of freedom.

acknowledging freedom makes her revive, and she doesn't consider whether she should feel bad about it.

mrs. mallard thinks to herself about how she'll cry when she sees her husband's dead body and how much he loved her. even so, she's kind of excited about the chance to make her own decisions and not feel accountable to anyone.

mrs. mallard feels even more swept up by the idea of freedom than the fact that she had felt love for her husband.

muir's use of diction creates a mood of urgency and fear. the highlighted words - difficult, difficult, force, crooked, struggling, tangled, fallen, fear, faint and hungry - come together to make you feel that the author is in danger. the imagery is clear so that it comes alive in your mind. diction can create a mood which can bring everything else together.
