Answer:

One way the author uses irony to convey his message is By having the "winner" of the Lottery of Fairness and Benevolence punished, he shows that society is dysfunctional.

Explanation:

The complete idea of this excerpt about having a lottery with the topic of crime and punishment is a pure irony element, there are so many points of irony such as the name of the lottery "Lottery of Fairness and Benevolence" while perhaps a person who is not guilty will pay for what others have done, making the system completely dysfunctional. Then the fact that it does not matter how old the person to be punished will be, and the necessity of having soldiers around.

Answer:

- Ben has not committed an assault or a battery because he acted in self defense.

Explanation:

As per the question, the statement that illustrates a true claim regarding the given situation is that Ben has neither committed an assault or battery as whatever he did(shoving Mike) was just an action in self-defense to protect himself from Mike's blow. It was Mike who attempts to strike Ben at first while the latter was just attempting to safeguard himself from his blow. Therefore, Ben's actions could not be considered either an offense/assault or battery as he acted in Self-defense and not intentionally.
