Answer:

The correct option is B. At the end of my talk about how to make an exciting speech, three people were sleeping.

Explanation:

The irony is usually defined as an event which appears to be radically different from what actually is. Irony can be categorized into different types, which are: verbal irony,  dramatic irony, and situational irony. being this last type the irony that seems to be happening in the example provided.

Situational irony represents a  dramatic discrepancy between the expected result of a certain situation and its actual result. The situation described in the example provided could be considered as a situational irony since a speaker who is talking about how to make an exciting speech would expect to end his talk with hooked listeners instead of sleepy ones.

Eddi Din [679]
No zip code and address are not the same. Typically the zip code would be considered apart of the address because in an address you have your street name, city, state and zip code. The zip code is an area code that represents the county or town you live in. hope this helps :)
