Which excerpt from “soldier's home” is the best example of irony? krebs went to the war from a methodist college in kansas. there is a picture which shows him among his fraternity brothers, all of them wearing exactly the same height and style collar. his lies were quite unimportant lies and consisted in attributing to himself things other men had seen, done or heard of, and stating as facts certain apocryphal incidents familiar to all soldiers. nothing was changed in the town except that the young girls had grown up. they all wore sweaters and shirt waists with round dutch collars. it was a pattern. there had been a great deal of hysteria. now the reaction had set in. people seemed to think it was rather ridiculous for krebs to be getting back so late, years after the war was over. (it's not the 3rd option)

Nothing was changed in the town except that the young girls had grown up. They all wore sweaters and shirt waists with round Dutch collars. It was a pattern.

Explanation:

The passage converys that despite the fact that the condition in the town has changed and the young girls have turned out to be more established, regardless they wear the clothing that they use when they were still young ladies.

judy jones is an attractive woman who receives attention from many men throughout the story.   despite her beautiful appearance, she is superficial and callous.   she is an aggressive woman who goes after any man she desires but she is not happy.   she is fickle and is never satisfied.   her beauty is only skin deep.   dexter breaks down because he knows his dreams are unattainable.   he believes that wealth and physical beauty are what will make him happy.   he soon realizes that she has lost her attractive looks.   it is not all what he had planned.

dramatic irony occurs when the reader/audience knows more about a character's situation than the character does. the one main effect is that it gives the reader a sense of superiority, or detached superiority. the reader not only seemingly discovers what is revealed, but feels superior for doing so.
