In the space below, write a 500-word essay describing the theme of o. henry’s “the gift of the magi” (click here to read the short story). explain how the author uses irony as an essential tool in developing this theme.

O'Henry used irony in "The Gift of the Magi". This tool was essential to developing the story's theme by showing that the couple bought gifts for each other that they could not actually use at the moment. In addition, the author used this fact to show that people of the society should treasure the things they've received from others, because you may never know if they sacrificed THEIR most treasured possession to aquire the gift.

the correct answer is "tan believes that nonstandard english can make family communication difficult". raising children across cultures can sometimes be challenging, especially when the values and expectations are from different cultures. this can make it difficult to feel a sense of belonging to any community.
