Answer:

d) irony

Explanation:

Irony is a literary device that expresses a discrepancy between what is said and what is meant, or between what is expected or what we believe is normal and what actually happens. The sentence is an example of irony because it shows a situation that we do not normally expect: the fire station, which is supposed to be the most protected place against fire, burned down!

KIM [24]
If the audience is very young, the primary goal is to entertain. For older people, however, there are a variety of different things the writer could be trying to accomplish, such as persuading, entertaining, and even informing. For that, you'd have to look at the content.
