Read the excerpt from "The Storyteller."

English

Answer:

"The children moved listlessly towards the aunt's end of the carriage."

"In a low, confidential voice, interrupted at frequent intervals by loud, petulant questionings from her listeners, she began an unenterprising and deplorably uninteresting story about a little girl who was good."

Explanation:

Situational irony occurs when the expected thing does not happen, or when the opposite result than what is presumed takes place. In the excerpt from "The Storyteller," by Hector Hugh Munro (Saki), when the aunt offers to tell the children a story, they do not expect it to be a good one. In fact, it is a boring account about an extremely good girl.

Answer:

I would describe the role of the viola in this song as a sound that really merges with the sound of a violin.

Explanation:

But the notes of the viola are noticeable. Perhaps, because of the authors' classic style mentioned, they sought a better-known sound so as not to risk so much, but tried to innovate with a more popular instrument in an attempt to create a new style of music or create a sound that better matched the style of the song. melody and lyrics.
