Question 17 of 35
Finally, after 10,000 years of searching for a planet that could sustain
their species long-term, the Vulturians had found one. They had
already attacked the inhabitants and depleted the resources of 400
other worlds in their long and cruel history, and now their own kind was
on the verge of extinction.
But perhaps extinction wouldn't be their fate after all. Their needle-
shaped spaceships dropped out of hyper speed and approached the
defenseless-looking planet.
For the people of Earth, the summer morning felt the same as any
other when suddenly the sky over every major city -- from New York to
Cairo to Tokyo - became filled with needle-shaped UFOs. "We come in
peace," a deep voice shouted down from the heavens.
Which statement best explains the text's use of dramatic irony?
A. When the aliens announce that their intentions are peaceful, the
reader is aware that they are lying.
B. When the aliens announce that their intentions are peaceful, the
audience is forced to reconsider the information from earlier in the
story
C. When the Vulturians finally discover a new world they can attack,
readers are likely to understand that they are named after vultures.

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

The vulturians announce peace but they plunder and made 400 planets to its extinction.

In "A Defence of Poetry,” Shelley suggests that emotions experienced in life are constantly changing. Which lines from "Mutability” can also be seen as a reflection of this idea?

Streaking the darkness radiantly!—yet soon
Night closes round, and they are lost for ever
We rest.—A dream has power to poison sleep;
We rise.—One wandering thought pollutes the day
We feel, conceive or reason, laugh or weep;
Embrace fond woe, or cast our cares away
Man’s yesterday may ne’er be like his morrow;
Nought may endure but Mutability.
