• She is involved in her daughter’s life.

In this excerpt, we learn a lot about Lady Bracknell’s personality. We learn that she is determined to get her way, as she pays the maid for her confidence, and she is firm in her demands to Jack. Moreover, we know she is involved in her daughter’s life because she considers it her responsibility to find her a suitable partner. Finally, we know she is willing to withhold certain truths as she has decided not to share the fate of her daughter with her husband.

Answer: A) Dolores Huerta was a strong activist and encouraged her supporters to be strong as well.

This excerpt describes Dolores Huerta as a strong woman, and even when it discusses a slightly negative characteristic (the fact that she had to make big sacrifices), the excerpt is redeeming by arguing that the children also learned very valuable lessons. It also states that “even when times were tough, Huerta never backed down.” Finally, the story near the end displays Huerta’s resolve and her commitment to the cause.

Dramatic Irony is irony based on you knowing something the characters don’t know. If you’ve ever seen a horror movie, or a Nicholas Sparks romantic drama, you know what I’m talking about. Examples would be knowing that the blonde character is about to open the door to the room that Jason is waiting in, or the husband coming home to see his wife when we clearly know she remarried while he was off.

So, asides are the main way a storyteller is able to communicate dramatic irony for tension, weather it be dramatic or comedic. Lets go back to the Friday the 13th analogy. The main story involves the teenagers at camp Crystal Lake. So while we’ll have a scene fleshing out their characters in the dining room, we’ll cut away to an “aside”, or scene/plotline that’s not directly related to the main plot, of Jason crawling in the window to the bathroom. We then cut back to the main shot, where the blonde character says she needs to relieve herself. Everybody laughs, and as she walks away, we see Jason inching towards the door with machete in hand. The side-plot, or “asides” of Jason getting in the room, builds the dramatic irony of us knowing the blonde is going to die, but the characters don’t know that yet as the asides were out of their realm of perspective.

I hope this helps!
