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.

change the sentences that direct and indirect speech
he said I am waiting for you
Answer:
He said that he was waiting for me.
Answer:
Direct speech: "I am waiting for you."
Indirect speech: "He said I am waiting for you."
Explanation:
Direct speech is a recount of a speaker or author's precise words. Indirect speech is employed instead. This is called direct dialogue. Direct speech is typically preceded by a reporting verb, signal phrase, or quotative frame.
Example: I am fluent in English.
Indirect speech is when someone communicates indirectly, focusing on the substance rather than the words. The reported clause in indirect speech determines whether a speaker is reporting a statement, an inquiry, or a command.
Example: He claims to be fluent in English.

Which dramatic element is this? “Juliet appears in a window above”
I would most likely have to give it, suspense, there’s a suspense to it because you wonder, “what will Juliet say, what will Juliet’s reaction be?” It leave audience/readers thinking and wondering when the character shows up in a spot and doesn’t have lines in the action or their reaction isn’t stated it could say
“Juliet appears in the window looking saddened”
Or
“Juliet appears in the window and utters sad words that rip through her heart”
