Sorry for the lateness, but it is ironic because of the following reasons: Sal likes chickens, her mother likes chickens, the chicken's name is Blackberry, and blackberries remind Sal of her mother. Try using your own words to make complete sentences. Hope this helped!

In chapter 40, Sal receives a gift chicken from Ben. Chickens are Sal's favorite animal. However, this is not the only thing that is interesting about the chicken. The name of the chicken is Blackberry, which is interesting for two reasons. The first one is that blackberries remind Sal of her mother, and the feeling of fondness and sweetness associated with her. The irony, however, is that the chicken also reminds her of kissing, based on the story of the girl who claimed that kissing tasted like chicken. When Sal kissed a tree, she also felt a trace of blackberry, which reminded her of her mother.

6. How does the fur contribute to the theme of the story? The story is ""Miss Brill""
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:please see below for interpretation.

Explanation: In the short story written by Katherine Mansfield,

The fur contributes to the theme of the story by representing the character MIss Brill who keeps her fur in a dark box and brings it out only to use it on outings.

The fur accumulates dust since it rarely used, and returns back to its location by Miss Brill after use upon returning.. This dust accumulated by the fur signifies that fur is not constantly in use and does not come out of the box, Similar to the character herself who seldomy goes out, like the fur she leaves home for a bit and spends time only to watch others, eavesdrop on their conversations and then returns to her lonely, small , dark room away from the world as before she left to dwell in her loneliness.

1. In Around the World in Eighty Days, Phileas Fogg makes an impulsive wager that he can travel around the world in eighty days
Fittoniya [83]
It affects the story because it makes it more objective. Passepartout doesn't have a personal bias in the matter and doesn't have anything to prove so he doesn't react impulsively and affectionately. You can use this idea and expand it a bit to get the two necessary paragraphs. Be sure to add citations from the actual book.
