I stood there, certain that the cloudiness of the shower was only partially from the precipitation. My anger was clouding my vision, and I was sure it would cause me to act irrationally in time.

The correct answer is D. Weed tree that wreaks havoc on the environment is referred to favorably as the "tree-of-heaven."
Explanation:

This means there is an incongruence between the expectations about the tree and the reality. Thus, the statement that explains irony is statement D.
