Answer:
In a flashback, Dana describes the first time she met Kevin, at which time she was working various low-wage jobs during the day and writing her novel at night. The irony of referring to these jobs as a "slave market" is both verbal and situational. Verbal irony is when words are used to convey the opposite of the literal meaning. Dana and her coworkers refer to their jobs as a "slave market" to express their discontent with the physical nature of the work and the low wages. However, the fact that they are paid for their work supports the opposite fact—this is far from slavery. Even Dana says, "Actually, it was just the opposite of slavery. The people who ran it couldn't have cared less whether or not you showed up to do the work they offered." Situational irony is when there is a disconnect between what a person expects to happen and what actually does happen. The situational irony is that Dana, a free, modern black woman, expects to remain as such. When she is cast back in time and forced to survive real slavery, she witnesses the slave market in its full meaning.

Answer:
[tex] \: \\ [/tex]
Skimming and scanning are two very different strategies for speed reading. They are each used for different purposes, and they are not meant to be used all the time. They are at the fast end of the speed reading range, while studying is at the slow end. People who know how to skim and scan are flexible readers. They read according to their purpose and get the information they need quickly without wasting time. They do not read everything which is what increases their reading speed. Their skill lies in knowing what specific information to read and which method to use.Skimming :
Skimming is one of the tools you can use to read more in less time. Skimming refers to looking only for the general or main ideas, and works best with non-fiction (or factual) material. With skimming, your overall understanding is reduced because you don’t read everything. You read only what is important to your purpose. Skimming takes place while reading and allows you to look for details in addition to the main ideas.
Scanning :
Scanning is another useful tool for speeding up your reading. Unlike skimming, when scanning, you look only for a specific fact or piece of information without reading everything. You scan when you look for your favorite show listed in the cable guide, for your friend’s phone number in a telephone book, and for the sports scores in the newspaper. For scanning to be successful, you need to understand how your material is structured as well as comprehend what you read so you can locate the specific information you need. Scanning also allows you to find details and other information in a hurry

Read this excerpt from “House Decoration” by Oscar Wilde:
In these days, we hear ladies boast that they do not wear a dress more than once. In the old days, when dresses were decorated with beautiful designs and worked with exquisite embroidery, ladies rather took a pride in bringing out the garment, wearing it many times, and handing it down to their daughters.

Richard, an Australian, is part of a team of lawyers based in Paris. Claude, 48, is the team's
PA. Claude works from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with an hour and a half for lunch. Richard is very
pleased with the quality of Claude's, work and her commitment to the team. Unfortunately
because of his extensive travel commitments abroad, he has never had the opportunity to
have lunch with her or spend any time with her and the team outside the work environment.
After a while, Richard asks to be addressed by his first name. Several months later, however,
Claude is still calling him 'Monsieur Lafleur' and addressing him with Voulez-vous bien..."
although Richard calls her 'Claude' and addresses her with Veux-tu.
Richard is puzzled and decides to talk to Claude about this matter in order to clarify the
situation. To his amazement, Claude replies that she prefers to call him by his surname and
refer to him with the formal vous.
How would you explain these differences in terms of Hofstede's cultural dimensions
and communication styles?
The differences in cultural dimensions and styles in the case shown above are explained by Hofstede through the distance of power.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Hofstede was a psychologist who defined differences between cultures and communication styles based on five different dimensions.Among these dimensions, we can mention the power distance between people.This power distance determines that individuals who are positioned on different rungs of a hierarchy communicate in different ways, in addition to having different customs from each other.As we can see in the case above, a power distance existed between Claude (employee) and Richard (boss). This distance of power causes Claude to refer to Richard in a very formal and respectful way, whereas Richard does not feel this need and refers to Claude very informally, without considering the hierarchy between them.
