Answer:

c. irony

Explanation:

Irony is a literary device that you can identify when there is a discrepancy between what is said and what is meant, or when the outcome of a story, or statement, is opposite to what you expected; this outcome tends to be tragic or humorous, and it tends to catch our attention, makes the story memorable and helps us think about the theme (the central message) of the literary work.

This is the literary device being used in the passage provided: Veronica did her best to stay healthy during her vacation, however, despite her effort, she got sick the next day she arrived to the hotel! The outcome of this story turned out to be a funny one and just the opposite to what was expected.

REY [17]

<em>Modifications in South Asia</em>, where almost 1.6 billion people live, are important measures to deal with urbanization and population growth. Research has estimated that almost 20 of 32 cities in India have water shortages on a daily basis. Residents of <em>Kathmandu </em>need to wait for hours to get water from the city. This modification helps with the control of water supply but restricts the amount of water to be used by the citizens.

Another South Asian government modification in <em>Pakistan</em>, hides vital information regarding water supply. Fort he government it is classified information, although there are treaties like the <em>Ganges Treaty</em>(1996) that supports the sharing of international information regarding hydroeletric. This is a measure that the Pakistan authorities consider critical for the control and benefit of water. But the lack of information sharing has also affected the government’s ability to deal effectively with natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and landslides .
