“Ladies and gentlemen—” said the ballerina, reading the bulletin. She must have been extraordinarily beautiful, because the mask she wore was hideous. And it was easy to see that she was the strongest and most graceful of all the dancers, for her handicap bags were as big as those worn by two-hundred-pound men. What is ironic about this excerpt? The ballerina is described as beautiful, but she is actually hideous. The news bulletin being read on the television is about Harrison. The ballerina is able to read the news bulletin flawlessly while wearing a mask and handicap bags. The handicaps devised to conceal the ballerina’s strength and beauty actually accentuate them.

I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear;
Those of mechanics--each one singing his, as it should be, blithe and strong;
The carpenter singing his, as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his, as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work;
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat--the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck;
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench--the hatter singing as he stands;
The wood-cutter's song--the ploughboy's, on his way in the morning, or at the noon intermission, or at sundown;
The delicious singing of the mother--or of the young wife at work--or of the girl sewing or washing--each singing what belongs to her, and to none else;
The day what belongs to the day--at night, the party of young fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing, with open mouths, their strong melodious songs.

What best describes Juliet's tone in the following exchange with Nurse (III. v. 242-247)? Juliet. Speakest thou from thy heart? Nurse. And from my soul too; Or else beshrew them both. Juliet. Amen! Nurse. What! Juliet. Well, thou hast comforted me marvellous much. sincere hysterical angry sarcastic

Answers

Answer:

sarcastic

Explanation:

In this part of the book "Romeo and Juliet" the Nurse is telling Juliet that Romeo was banned from the city and for that reason, it would be better for Juliet to marry again because even if the second marriage is bad it will be better than marriage with Romeo, since he can not go back to town. At that moment Juliet is horrified at the words of the Nurse, who knows that Juliet loves Romeo, and asks if the nurse is speaking with her heart (speaking sincerely). The nurse says she wants her heart and soul to be cursed if she does not speak honestly and for this reason Juliet sarcastically replies "Amen."

Juliet replies with sarcasm because she wants to show that she does not believe that at Nurse's suggestion of marrying a man she does not love and insinuating that this man will be better than romeu. Juliet does not want to accept this "sincerity."

I think it might be Sarcastic
