The correct answer is B. Irony.

Explanation

Sarcasm is a concept that refers to a cruel mockery that offends or mistreats someone or something. Sarcasm is a kind of irony that appeals to the humor with wit. However, it is malicious as it seeks to hurt the recipient. Also, it is expressed in an obvious way or through indirect or covert criticism. On the other hand, the irony is a disguised mockery that consists of making sense of the opposite of what is said through a certain intonation or body language. To conclude, sarcasm and irony are related, however, sarcasm is characterized by being more aggressive or offensive. So the correct answer is B. Irony.

Rudik [331]
The answer is B. Mrs. Mallard loved her husband, but she is happy that she is free. Back then women were like possessions to their husbands. The wives stayed home to clean the house and take care of the children. When the husband came home the wife was to serve the husband. Wives were no different than maids back then to their husband. Mrs. Mallard did love her husband which is why she was trying to beat it back. However, above all she was free from the "possession of her husband" so she was free. I hope this helps and I hope you understand. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments. Have a nice day!
