Incomplete question. I provided an explanation about irony in literature.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Situational Irony is a literary device used by an author to express <u>an action in the plot of a story that is totally different from what the reader would expect.</u>
For example, a protagonist (the leading character) in a story with so much life in one story unexpectedly and tragically died. This is ironic because the reader would naturally expect the protagonist to save the day.
Ah, it's been a good three years since I've read this book, I believe the answer is D. the royal funeral illustrates respect for heroic leaders.
