These questions are related to "lamb to the slaughter" i will give 100 points, so
1. what point of view is the story told from? why is that important?
2. what influence does mary's pregnancy have on the story?
3. that is the dramatic (and situational) irony of the story?
4. how is the title a pun?
5. why does the author have mary giggle at the end of the story?

1. The story is told from Mary's viewpoint or first person. This is important because we are aware of the things only Mary knows and that others don't.

2. Mary's pregnancy may make some readers sympathize with her because she is going to be a new mother, which is very hard along with being pregnant.

3. The dramatic irony is when the police unsuspectingly eat the murder weapon. This is dramatic irony because without a murder weapon, it will be hard to prove this criminal case.

4. The tile is a pun because of two things. A lamb is someone hwo is ignorant to what is going on that is, in the end, going to ruin them. Mary's husband is unaware of his fate and he is very trusting to Mary. The other funny thing is that he is killed with a frozen lamb leg.

5. the policemen have eaten the murder weapon (Mary killed her husband with a frozen lamb leg and baked it and the police ate it lol)

Good luck and hope I helped!
