Which examples of situational irony does Saki use to create satire? Select two options.
Goshia [24]

Answer:

I believe the examples that create satire through situational irony are:

D) The aunt wants the bachelor to learn his lesson, but she learns hers instead.  

E) Bertha thinks that it is good to win medals for goodness, but the medals get her killed.

Explanation:

In literature, situational irony takes place when we are led to believe something will take place, but something else that's completely different is the result. It is a plot twist in which a character's actions are twisted into the opposite.

Among the options provided, there are two that represent situational irony in Saki's "The Storyteller". First, there is the aunt's intent to teach the bachelor a lesson. The aunt failed miserably at telling her nieces and nephew a story that was both entertaining and educative. <u>When the bachelor criticizes her, she defies him by asking him to do a better job at telling the children a story. To her surprise and disappointment, he is successful. The children love his story.</u> When the aunt criticizes the lack of moral lessons in it, the bachelor reveals he never intended to teach the kids anything. He just wanted them to be quiet for ten minutes.

<u>Another situational irony concerns Bertha, the character in the bachelor's story, getting killed because of the medals. Bertha believed those medals were precious trophies of her impeccable behavior and goodness.</u> They should, therefore, be a type of reward, something that would make her life better. <u>Instead, their clanking noise is what attracts the wolf and reveals her hiding place.</u>

<u>As we can see, both the aunt's and Bertha's intents were twisted into their opposite, characterizing situational irony. </u>
