Answer:
B. The father probably punched something and messed up his fist.
Explanation:
Imagery is a powerful tool many writers and poets use. Using figurative and descriptive language, they help their readers visualize what is written by appealing to their senses.
The given line is from the poem <em>My Papa’s Waltz</em> written by Theodore Roethke. Roethke uses imagery to help us imagine a father's battered hand holding the little boy's wrist. Based on the context, we know that the father was abusive and that he beat his own son. This is why options A and C could also be correct.
But in the question you were given, we don't have the context. If we didn't take a look at the entire poem, we could only assume that he punched something and injured his fist. This is why option B is the correct one.

Answer: "By contrast, the plantation had only one purpose: to create a single product that could be grown, ground, boiled, dried, and sold to distant markets."
Explanation:
<em>Sugar Changed the World </em>is a book written by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos. In the book, they explore the history of sugar, particularly in slave trade.
In this excerpt, the author's claim is that plantation was considered as a revolutionary way of making sugar: the whole process from planting the seeds to drying and selling it was happening in one place. It was the first time in human history that the farms were organized in such a way. The correct answer is, therefore, the second option.

Answer:
D. A teacher running right into a door and falling on her face
Explanation:
Situational irony is a situation, outcome or an action that happens although that was unexpected from the known facts or premises.
It is completely unexpected for an experienced Olympic diver to make such a beginner's mistake and do the belly flop.
We could say the same for an 80- year old lady to be familiar with modern technologies, let alone use them and be a part of it.
Also, a ridiculously short man winning a high-jump competition is a rather unexpected outcome.
However, a teacher running right into a door and falling is simply a painful accident, because teachers aren't in any way less prone to accidents nor it is expected of them to never accidentally injure themselves.
