PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A? A “It turns out that a good handful of rappers use a grea

ter vocabulary than Shakespeare did, for the same sized block of lyrics.” ( Paragraph 1) B “and the fact that whereas there are many good ways of estimating his vocabulary from concordances and good complete editions, the same was not true for his peers. Shakespeare was just better documented and his vocabulary was easier to measure.” ( Paragraph 7-8) C “So what is it that fascinates people about vocabulary size? It seems to offer a neat quantitative measure for literary quality. But this does not stand up to scrutiny.” ( Paragraph 14) D “The good thing about busting the Shakespeare vocabulary myth is that we can now avoid that particular dead-end in working out what makes his use of language so remarkable and explore more promising ones, such as the abundance and creativity of his metaphors” ( Paragraph 15)

Answer:

The type of irony found in this excerpt is: situational irony.

Explanation:

Situational irony is a literary device consisting of leading the reader to believe a certain event / ending will take place and then unexpectedly changing the outcome.

The author describes Chef Kylie's dishes in detail. Readers get to know that his most acclaimed dishes all consist of meat - lots and lots of meat. With such a description, it is ironic for the author to, all of a sudden, reveal that the chef is actually a vegetarian. Most readers probably do not see it coming at all. Who would expect a vegetarian to used so much meat in their own cooking? Why would a vegetarian cook something they do not eat themselves? Readers are thus shocked by this revelation, and that is where the situational irony lies.
