Answer: C) Situational irony.

Explanation: an irony is a state of affairs or an event that seems contrary to what one expects and it often has an amusing result. A situational irony is when what happens is the contrary to what the characters or the audience are expecting to happen. In the given story we can see an example of a situational irony, because Sam needs his flashlight to see in the dark, but because it is dark he can't find the flashlight without a flashlight.

Which two topics are best for classification writing?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:Locate the top three Mexican restaurants in Maine.  Identify the four most nutritious types of food.

Explanation:Classification is sorting things into groups or categories. It can be also be considered as a simple division. In this case, the two chosen topics are best for classification writing because they allow to develop a general subject (Mexican restaurants, and Nutritious food) and then divide those subjects into smaller categories like, the Mexican restaurants in Main, then the best and the worst Mexican restaurants in Maine or the most nutritious types of food, in this way, we can later select the number of elements required in each case (3 restaurants, 4 types of food)
