Answer:

c.He grows up to become a police officer

Explanation:

One of the definitions of Irony is: <em>"a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result".</em>

A thief is a criminal. And a criminal who grows up to become a law enforcer is deliberately contrary to what you would expect, most of the times. Therefore, it is an amusing result and it can be considered ironic.

This is all for the poem "To His Coy Mistress" They're all short answers.
serg [7]
<span>1) The speaker pleads with his mistress to let him touch her and to lose her virginity to him.
  2) She is being coy because they aren't married, and being sexually involved with him would stain her honor as a woman.
  3) If they lived for eons, it would be OK for her to put him off. He would use the eons to love her from a distance. But their lives are short. Therefore, she should enjoy physical love with him.
  4) Vegetable love wouldn't be physically active like an animal; it would grow in one place instead.
  5) "Like amorous birds of prey, rather at once our time devour" describes a fierce, active, physical love.
 6) "Roll all our strength and all our sweetness up into one ball" suggests they should be so close they are one.
 7) "Deserts of vast eternity" don't contain any physical satisfaction.
 8) The sun stands for time. Time will pass and they will die; they have no control over that. This is expressed by "we cannot make our sun stand still". 9) The poet urges her to "carpe diem" or "seize the day".
  10) Acting on physical desire means being truly alive for him.</span>

PIT_PIT [208]
In the essay Benjamin Franklin wrote in 1784 about Native Americans, titled “Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America”, he stated that the Native Americans were called savages “because their manners differ from ours, which we think the perfection of civility; they think the same of theirs.” The theme of empathy is seen in Franklin’s essay, as he encouraged seeing the other person’s point of view in dealing with the Native Americans. In highlighting the similarity of how Native Americans conduct their public councils to how order is maintained in the British House of Commons, he promoted the value of respect for diversity.
