Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster."
General Gates's troops held their ground. Benedict Arnold, one of Gates's generals, argued for a counterattack that would smash the British force. Gates, outraged that Arnold would challenge his order, took away his command. But the rash Arnold saw a chance to strike a crucial blow. He galloped through the crossfire of both armies, inspiring his men. A bullet struck his leg, but he rode on, leading the final assault that shattered the British fortifications. If he had died of his wounds that day, Arnold would be remembered as one of the great heroes of the Revolutionary War.

What type of irony was used in this story?
IRONY
Definition: There are three types of irony: verbal, situational and dramatic.
Verbal irony occurs when a speaker's intention is the opposite of what he or she is
saying. For example, a character stepping out into a hurricane and saying, "What nice
weather we're having!"
Situational irony occurs when the actual result of a situation is totally different from
what you'd expect the result to be. Sitcoms often use situational irony. For example, a
family spends a lot of time and money planning an elaborate surprise birthday party for
their mother to show her how much they care. But it turns out, her birthday
is next month, and none of them knew the correct date. She ends up fuming that no
one cares enough to remember her birthday.
Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows a key piece of information that
a character in a play, movie or novel does not. This is the type of irony that makes us
yell, "DON'T GO IN THERE!!" during a scary movie. Dramatic irony is huge in
Shakespeare's tragedies, most famously in Othello and Romeo and Juliet, both of which
we'll examine later.
Why Writers Use It:
Irony inverts our expectations. It can create the unexpected twist
at the end of a joke or a story that gets us laughing - or crying. Verbal irony tends to
be funny; situational irony can be funny or tragic; and dramatic irony is often tragic.

Read the poem.
The Whippoorwill
by Madison Julius Cawein
I.
Above lone woodland ways that led
To dells the stealthy twilights tread
The west was hot geranium red;
And still, and still,
Along old lanes the locusts sow
With clustered pearls the Maytimes know,
Deep in the crimson afterglow,
We heard the homeward cattle low,
And then the far-off, far-off woe
Of "whippoorwill!" of "whippoorwill!"
II.
Beneath the idle beechen boughs
We heard the far bells of the cows
Come slowly jangling towards the house;
And still, and still,
Beyond the light that would not die
Out of the scarlet-haunted sky;
Beyond the evening-star's white eye
Of glittering chalcedony,
Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry
Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."
III.
And in the city oft, when swims
The pale moon o'er the smoke that dims
Its disc, I dream of wildwood limbs;
And still, and still,
I seem to hear, where shadows grope
Mid ferns and flowers that dewdrops rope,
Lost in faint deeps of heliotrope
Above the clover-sweetened slope,
Retreat, despairing, past all hope,
The whippoorwill, the whippoorwill.
Whippoorwill - a nocturnal bird with a distinctive call that is suggestive of its name
Question 1
Part A
What is a theme of “The Whippoorwill?
People sometimes long for what they cannot have.
In order to move forward, people must leave the past behind.
Nature soothes the heart and calms the mind.
There is a balance between nature and the city.
Question 2
Part B
How does the theme in Part A develop in the poem?
The woeful sound of the whippoorwill echos the despair the speaker feels living in the city.
The speaker thinks he hears the sound of the whippoorwill while walking in the city.
The city sky is filled with cloudy, gray smoke and it makes the speaker feel sad that the moon is hidden.
The speaker recalls his fondest memories of nature while living in the city.

Traditional Academic Essays In Three Parts
Part I: The Introduction
An introduction is usually the first paragraph of your academic essay. If you’re writing a long essay, you might need 2 or 3 paragraphs to introduce your topic to your reader. A good introduction does 2 things:
Gets the reader’s attention. You can get a reader’s attention by telling a story, providing a statistic, pointing out something strange or interesting, providing and discussing an interesting quote, etc. Be interesting and find some original angle via which to engage others in your topic.
Provides a specific and debatable thesis statement. The thesis statement is usually just one sentence long, but it might be longer—even a whole paragraph—if the essay you’re writing is long. A good thesis statement makes a debatable point, meaning a point someone might disagree with and argue against. It also serves as a roadmap for what you argue in your paper.
Part II: The Body Paragraphs
Body paragraphs help you prove your thesis and move you along a compelling trajectory from your introduction to your conclusion. If your thesis is a simple one, you might not need a lot of body paragraphs to prove it. If it’s more complicated, you’ll need more body paragraphs. An easy way to remember the parts of a body paragraph is to think of them as the MEAT of your essay:
Main Idea. The part of a topic sentence that states the main idea of the body paragraph. All of the sentences in the paragraph connect to it. Keep in mind that main ideas are…
like labels. They appear in the first sentence of the paragraph and tell your reader what’s inside the paragraph.
arguable. They’re not statements of fact; they’re debatable points that you prove with evidence.
focused. Make a specific point in each paragraph and then prove that point.
Evidence. The parts of a paragraph that prove the main idea. You might include different types of evidence in different sentences. Keep in mind that different disciplines have different ideas about what counts as evidence and they adhere to different citation styles. Examples of evidence include…
quotations and/or paraphrases from sources.
facts, e.g. statistics or findings from studies you’ve conducted.
narratives and/or descriptions, e.g. of your own experiences.
Analysis. The parts of a paragraph that explain the evidence. Make sure you tie the evidence you provide back to the paragraph’s main idea. In other words, discuss the evidence.
Transition. The part of a paragraph that helps you move fluidly from the last paragraph. Transitions appear in topic sentences along with main ideas, and they look both backward and forward in order to help you connect your ideas for your reader. Don’t end paragraphs with transitions; start with them.
Keep in mind that MEAT does not occur in that order. The “Transition” and the “Main Idea” often combine to form the first sentence—the topic sentence—and then paragraphs contain multiple sentences of evidence and analysis. For example, a paragraph might look like this: TM. E. E. A. E. E. A. A.
Part III: The Conclusion
A conclusion is the last paragraph of your essay, or, if you’re writing a really long essay, you might need 2 or 3 paragraphs to conclude. A conclusion typically does one of two things—or, of course, it can do both:
=
Explanation:
Which phrase best describes an effective claim?

a thought-provoking question that will be answered by the reader
