State two reasons why Mr. M repeats himself in line 2.

Act 1 Scene 2

But happily so! Most unhappily, unhappily so! Don't you know that?

Mr. M is making a point... he uses repetition to make his point emphatically. He is also making clear to Thami that he didn't always listen in class... possibly, he only heard and remembered those things he wanted to hear and remember.
