The correct answer is C. A situation in which what happens is the opposite of what was expected to happen

Explanation:

Irony is often classified into three types: verbal, dramatical and situational irony. In the case of the situation irony, this occurs when events have an unexpected outcome, which often means the opposite of what is expected occurs; also, situational irony occurs when characters, events, etc. are not in the way readers believe they should. For example, a character creates a precise plan to kill another but instead, he ends killing himself. Additionally, situational irony is used in literature to amuse readers or surprise them. According to this, the option that best describes situational irony is "A situation in which what happens is the opposite of what was expected to happen".

In what way is grendel a modern day monster rather than a traditional historical monster?
Pani-rosa [81]
<span>Grendel can be considered to be a modern-day monster primarily because there are so many human characteristics in him, and in the old days that wasn't the way in which monsters were portrayed. Here we can see that Grendel feels hatred towards the soldiers, that he is also afraid when he sees Beowulf, he isn't just a mindless monster lusting for blood, there is a reason behind him doing all the killings.

After reading this you would have got your answer :)

Hope this helps :)</span>
