The statement that describes the irony in the narrator's observation that the couple is "not from here" is "the narrator is not from 'here' either," option A.

<h3>What is irony?</h3>

Irony is usually described as a situation where the consequences or outcome is different from what we initially expected. Here, however, we are looking for the irony found in the narrator's words in the story "Mericans."

In this case, the irony is not about the situation or its outcome per se. It relates more to who is saying what about whom. The girl who narrates the story is "not from here," which means she is not completely American. She is of Mexican origin, but she still judges the couple she sees by saying they were clearly "not from here."

In other words, the irony is that everyone is "not from here" to someone. The narrator is "not from here" in the sense that she is Mexican. The couple is "not from here" in the sense that they are not Catholics.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.

(C) Controls

The definition of a control variable in an experiment is a part of it that is experimented, but it is purposefully kept the same throughout. If it is (C), why can't it be the others?

Lastly, it cannot be (B) theories because theories are always changing. Theories, due to new scientific knowledge, is going to be different as scientists learn new things. Therefore, (C), controls would be your answer. Hope this helps!
