Read the excerpt from romeo and juliet, act i, scene v. romeo: o! then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do; they pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair. juliet: saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake. romeo: then move not, while my prayers’ effect i take. thus from my lips, by thine, my sin is purg’d. [kissing her.] juliet: then have my lips the sin that they have took. romeo: sin from my lips? o trespass sweetly urg’d!
give me my sin again.

this is an example of dramatic irony because
a) the audience is relieved that romeo has found a suitable partner.
b) the audience is eager to discover rosaline’s opinion of the couple.
c) romeo and juliet are shy characters who usually avoid social events.
d) romeo and juliet have yet to discover that they are from feuding families.

Read the excerpt from "home front diary." jimmy simmons stopped by today to tell me that he had enlisted in the army. he asked me if i would write to him, and i said i would. i told him that i've been writing to my uncle arthur and susan's cousin john for about a year, and as an experienced correspondent i had some advice about all the censorship. "don't write down any information about your location or the number of soldiers in your unit because the censors will cut all of that away," i said. "in my experience, loose lips not only sink ships, they make letters look like snowflake decorations! ” well, he belly laughed over that one. how is the author's perspective different from jimmy's? the author has been to war and she can give jimmy advice. jimmy has become a soldier and does not believe the author’s advice. the author has experience writing to soldiers but jimmy does not. jimmy has more experience at letter writing than the author.
