Answer:

D.Mr. Covey's attempts to break Douglass's will with oppressive violence only serve to inspire Douglass to seek his freedom.

Situational Irony is the type of irony that occurs when a situation is opposite of what someone was expecting.

Option D is the best answer as it is the best example of situational irony, because Mr. Covey tried to break Douglas' will with oppressive violence but the result he got was the opposite of what he expected, which was a burning desire for Douglas to get freedom.

Compare the words award and warp. How are they alike? How are they different?
natali 33 [55]

Award and warp are not very similar. There definitions are completely different. An award is a monetary compensation or something you receive for being good at something. This could include money for returning a lost dog or receiving a trophy for winning the spelling bee or basketball competition. Warp has a couple definitions. The most common definition is when something is bent or twisted out of shape. But, it can also mean when a ship is pulled by a rope that is connected to a stationary object on shore. The words also do not rhyme. One way that the words are similar, however, is that they both include the letters "war," which also make a similar sound.

Helen Grey
GuDViN [60]

The theme of Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem "Helen Grey" is, beauty isn't everything. We know this to be true because the Rossetti describes Helen Grey as "handsome" and "proud" but also says "But so you miss that modest charm / Which is the surest charm of all." This shows the reader that Helen Grey is very attractive and takes pride in her attraction. However, she has let her beauty go to her head, resulting in an unpleasant personality that no man has found her attractive. The last four lines of the poem "Helen Grey" support the its main theme by drawing the reader's attention to the reality of age and time. Time will continue to go by causing Helen to grow old, wrinkly, and gray. Time will pass and with it, Helen's beauty shall pass too. If she does not  change her ways, she will be left with and unattractive personality, and face.
