There are three different types of irony. Dramatic irony is when the reader or audience understands something that the characters do not. Situational irony is the difference between what happens and what was expected to happen. Verbal irony is when words express something contrary to the truth or when someone says the opposite of what they feel.
The passage, "May the Gods rain down all kinds of fortune on your lives, misfortune never harbor in your homeland," is from <em>The Odyssey</em>. Odysseus says this prayer after King Alcinous told the nobles to be generous with their gifts. It is ironic because Odysseus is the reasoning for their suffering. It is an example of situational irony because Odysseus is causing their misfortune and saying a prayer that there not be misfortune in their land.

Answer:
B. The beginning of a life together.
Explanation:
The short story "Dish Night" by Michael Martone tells the story of two unnamed protagonists, a couple whose opinions about life are represented by the collection of dishes. The dishes represent two aspects of the couple, for the young girl, it represents the family life she wished to get and for the young man, it represents the life he wished to live with her and his love for her.
The young girl sees the collection of the dishes as a representation of the large family she wanted, <em>"collecting enough pieces for [their] family of eight."</em> On the other hand, the young man sees the dishes as <em>"the movie of [his] life, this walking home under the moon from a movie with a girl holding a dinner plate under her arm like a book." </em>But one similarity is that both view the collection of dishes as something that will bring them together, one with the desire for a large family and the other desiring a life with her, representative of his love for her.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
