Answer:
The school was closed because of strike.
Explanation:
This is the story entitled "The Importance of Being Earnest".

to his brother are ironic because she knows from the start that Jack’s
pretences of having a brother are eventually real. He then finds out that
Algernon is his younger brother upon questioning Miss Prism at the last part of
the story.

expect that Jack has a brother and that it will be Algernon, as opposite to
their expected ending. </span>
