There are three types of irony, verbal, situational, and dramatic. Verbal irony is the use of words to mean something different than what the person says. Situational irony is when something different happens than what is expected. Lastly, dramatic irony is when is when the audience is aware of something the characters are not.
In the story "Harrison Bergeron," Vonnegut employs dramatic irony. The audience is aware that Harrison was murdered by the government, but the characters although they witnessed it, cannot recall mere moments later that their own son was murdered. He was murdered for rejecting the government and their control over trying to make everyone equal and the same mechanisms caused his own parents to forget him.
The answer is most likely D! :)

Answer:
D. Barry's band perform for a group of paying customers every time they play at Filits.
Explanation:
The tricky thing with words such as "band", "team", "jury" etc. is determining whether they are singular or plural.
Basically, the rule is that when we talk about the group of people, as a whole, we use singular form, but when we talk about the members of the group we use plural form.
Sentences A. and B. are correct; "Barry plays/feels...", "The name comes..." all use correct verb forms regarding the subject.
Sentence C. in the first part uses "The band is called..." and then "They have been...". This might seem wrong, but it actually isn't. In the first part, the band refers to the group, meaning it's singular. In the second part "they" refers to the band members, which should be plural.
Ssntence D. uses the band as the group, but uses the inadequate verb form - perform instead of performs.
It's nearly perfect just change the "of" next to June to in
