In this excerpt from Oscar Wilde's play "The Importance of Being Earnest," which sentence contains an example of verbal irony? Algernon. Most women become like their mothers. Have you ever noticed? And most men, like their fathers. It's fascinating! Jack. Yes. Quite so. It's a very clever observation for you to make. Algernon. It is, isn't it? I find that cleverness is something to strive for. Something that we could use more of in civilized society. What do you think of it? Jack. I am sick to death of cleverness. Everybody is clever nowadays. You can't go anywhere without meeting clever people. The thing has become an absolute public nuisance. I wish to goodness we had a few fools left.

Read the passage from "marriage is a private affair" by chinua achebe. "i shall not call in a native doctor.” nnaemeka’s father was known to be obstinately ahead of his more superstitious neighbours in these matters. "i will not be another mrs. ochuba. if my son wants to kill himself let him do it with his own hands. it is not for me to him.” "but it was her fault,” said madubogwu. "she ought to have gone to an honest herbalist. she was a clever woman, nevertheless.” "she was a wicked murderess,” said jonathan who rarely argued with his neighbours because, he often said, they were incapable of reasoning. "the medicine was prepared for her husband, it was his name they called in its preparation and i am sure it would have been perfectly beneficial to him. it was wicked to put it into the herbalist’s food, and say you were only trying it out.” what are the benefits of analyzing this passage from more than one perspective? select two options. analyzing the passage from a historical perspective would be beneficial because the analysis would focus on times and places rather than people and emotions. analyzing the passage from a feminist perspective would likely provide insights on how a woman like mrs. ochuba would be treated in the ibo culture of that time. analyzing the passage from a feminist perspective would likely provide insights on how ibo women are morally superior to ibo men. analyzing the passage from a historical perspective would likely provide insights on how ibo people of the time viewed native medicine. analyzing the passage from a feminist perspective is not possible in this case because the author, chinua achebe, is male.
