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.

I bet the butcher that he couldn’t reach the meat on the top shelf. He refused to take the bet because the steaks were too high.
AlladinOne [14]
This is an example of an idiom.

An idiom that has a different meaning than what it sounds like.

It doesn’t actually mean that the steak is high. “The steaks were too high” simply means that it’s too dangerous/risky.


Hope this helps!

Which answer identifies the appositive or appositive phrase and the word or words it renames? I keep hearing that horse, the one
kari74 [83]

Answer:

renames "the one with the white blaze"

Explanation:

An appositive is a type of noun that names another noun that is close to each other in position.

From the sentence, <u>"I keep hearing that horse, the one with the white blaze, whinnying loudly."</u>, the appositive here is "the one with the white blaze" because it renames the word <em>"the horse"</em>
