1. What is ironic or humorous about the following sentence?
"Gilray kept pestering me with letters about his chrysanthemum. He seemed to have no faith in me--a detestable
thing in a man who calls himself your friend."
Answer: He left his flower with his friend because he trusted him, but doesn’t trust him fully to know that he’ll actually take care of it. It’s ironic because you’re supposed to be able to trust/have faith in your friends.
