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.
