Which is not an example of irony in “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin?
blsea [12.9K]

The answer:

Option D) Mrs. Mallard bursts out weeping when she hears the news of her husband’s death. It is said in teh story that it was a friend of her husband who brought the newsto her, shocked by the news she cried in her sister's arms. This actually happens in the story which makes it not irony

Incorrect answer A) The doctors diagnose the death of Mrs. Mallard as “joy that kills.” This presents an irony thought by using the expression "joy that kills" having the word joy a positive an jubilant meaning, it can not be compared to the word death in the first part of the sentence which is a negative word. Option A is a clear example of sarcastic writing.

Incorrect answer B) In the midst of Mrs. Mallard’s grief, she sees and hears the signs of spring. This is also a clear example of sarcastic writing, the keywords are grief and signs of spring, being in two totally opposite points, grief represents emotional pain, meanwhile, we can enlist sings of spring like blooming flowers, shiny and sunny days, and bright and energetic colors which we normally connect to happy feelings.

Incorrect answer C)  When she sees her husband, Mrs. Mallard dies of heart failure It is an irony that after all the pain that she passed trough and being everybody so careful about how to deliver the news, it is the presence of herhusbad in the flesh tha one that kills her.
