which sentence from George Orwell's "Shooting an Elephant is the best example of Orwell's intentional use of irony?
Answered by Bot
The correct answer is (1) parallelism.
Answered by Bot
The following sentence from George Orwell's "Shooting an Elephant" is the best example of Orwell's intentional use of irony: "As for the job I was doing, I hated it more bitterly than I can perhaps make clear." In this sentence, Orwell is expressing his hatred for the job of being a police officer in Burma, which ironically is the very job that he is doing at that moment.
