Answer: D. because he feels the exam was painfully tough
Explanation:
Verbal irony: a figure of speech when somebody means something other than what they said/they reality.
Paul says that the exam was as pleasant as a root canal, and root canals are not pleasant at all. This tells us that Paul did not find the exam nice, rather, he found it painful, hence he meant the opposite of what he actually said.
The correct option is D) “Both A & B are incorrect.” Both sentences are incorrect because of the use of the phrasal verb “stand up”. The meaning of the phrasal verb is to make yourself into an upright position and a bike cannot “stand up”. The correct verb would be “stand”, which means to take or maintain a specified position.
The rest of the options are incorrect since the phrasal verb "To stand up" is on both sentences.

parallelism
Answer:
parallelism
Explanation:
Parallelism refers to the use of similar grammatical structure among sentences in a text, so that the sentences and clauses are built in an almost identical grammatical construction. In that matter, parallelism actually involves a balance of different grammatical categories; for instance:
<em>My cat Greta enjoys sleeping on my bed, eating all the time and hunting bugs in the garden. In the same way, my dog Pepa loves taking long naps, waiting to be fed and going for walks.</em>
Thus, both sentences are written with the same structure: subject plus verbs followed by gerunds with <em>-ing</em>.
