The third one is the correct answer. I just read the book and took a test on it.
The instances of situational irony that occur in the above passage are:
The aunt expects the boy to accept her explanations, but he does not.
The aunt expects the boy to be interested in the cows, but he is not.
A situational irony is a form of irony in which the actions have an opposite effect of what it is intended. The outcome of the situation is totally different to what it is expected. In the above excerpt, the answers which the boy gets from his Aunt and the way he deals with those answers are an example of situational irony.
Answer:
D: He uses figurative language to convey the idea that white people morally corrupt Native Americans.
Explanation:
In the 1832 surrender speech by Black Hawk, the Indian leader expressed his hatred for the white people who came only to destroy his land and his people. The main idea of his speech was to emphasize the need for the Native Indians to fight against the whites and preserve their lands and traditions.
In the given lines from the speech, Black Hawk uses figurative language to describe the whites. He uses a simile, comparing the whites to <em>"snakes . . . coiled themselves among us like snakes. They poisoned us by their touch."</em> And they have made them <em>"hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers, and no workers."</em> Through this imagery, Black Hawk <u>conveys the idea that white people are morally corrupt and must not be trusted.</u>
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
