anzhelika [568]

Examples of irony that Saki uses to create satire would be options C and D. Option C is irony because Bertha felt sad that she was not going to be tempted, usually you're not sad over temptation, and for Option D it was mentioned that pigs were more important than flowers which is a bit ironic because usually that would be said the other way around.

When Wes accidentally caused his sister's lip to bleed on page 89, his mother slapped him on the face and made the decision to s
Inga [223]

Answer and Explanation:

The interaction between Wes and his mother makes it difficult to say who was right. Although, I do not believe that using violence as punishment and imposing wills on children is the right way to be a mother, I cannot help denying that Wes's mother did him a good by sending him to military school, as he spared Wes the inhospitable environment where he lived and allowed the military school to change his personality for the better, but I think that her position in imposing this change of school should have been better explored. I believe she should have talked to Wes and exposed her opinion about him going to military school and listening to what he has to say about it and the behavior he is assuming.
