The prophecy foretold that King Gallant would lose his crown to an individual with red hair, so he rounded up all the redheads in the
kingdom and banished them to the neighboring kingdom of Galtria.
When he had finished, the king gathered his most loyal knights and
went on a journey to seize the legendary Sacred Fleece from a rival
king
While the king was away, the queen began to worry. The princess, who
was only a baby when the king left on his quest for the fleece, was
starting to grow hair for the first time - red hair. Suddenly, a page
rushed into the throne room and announced, "The king is returning!"
Which statement best explains the text's use of dramatic irony?
A. When the queen realizes that the princess has red hair, the author
uses the color red to symbolize the blood the king will spill.
B. When the king banishes all redheads to a neighboring kingdom,
the audience knows that the banished subjects will ultimately take
up arms against him.
C. When the queen realizes that the princess has red hair, the reader
becomes aware that the king will react negatively to his daughter.
D. When the king banishes all redheads to a neighboring kingdom, it
becomes apparent that he will have to learn to accept fate rather
than fight it.

Which two parts of this excerpt from mary shelley’s frankenstein reveals information about the setting? (it was on a dreary night of november that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils.) with an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, (i collected the instruments of life around me, that i might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. it was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out) when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, i saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. (how can i describe my emotions at this catastrophe), or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care i had endeavored to form? his limbs were in proportion, and i had selected his features as beautiful. beautiful! great god! (his yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; ) but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same color as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shriveled complexion and straight black lips.
