trapecia [35]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read 'Hearts and Hands', by William Sydney Porter

Which statement best describes the situational irony of the ending of the story?

A)- The reader doesn't expect to learn that Easton is the counterfeiter.

B). The reader expects Easton to ask to visit Miss Fairchild, and he doesn't

C)- Miss Fairchild expects Easton to ask her to join him out West, and he doesn't.

D). The reader doesn't expect other passengers to be listening to Miss Fairchild's conversation.

Answer: A)- The reader doesn't expect to learn that Easton is the counterfeiter.

Explanation:

When Miss Fairchild recognizes Mr. Easton as one of the two men handcuffed to each other on the train, she, and the reader, are led to believe that Mr. Easton is a United States marshall on his way to take the man he´s handcuffed to into prison. However, when Mr. Easton and his companion leave, two passengers talk about the conversation that had taken place with Miss Fairchild. Based on how Mr. Easton and his companion were handcuffed, they come to the conclusion that Mr. Easton was actually the prisoner and not the Marshall.
