The instances of situational irony most likely occurred in the passage in:

The aunt expects the boy to accept her explanations, but he does not.
The aunt expects the boy to be interested in the cows, but he is not.

Situational irony occurs when the opposite of a particular expected outcome happens.

Although the passage is incomplete, i can infer that the passage you are referring to is from The Storyteller which talks about the conversation between a young boy and his aunt about the movement of sheep to another pasture.

Situational irony is used when the boy refuses to accept his aunt's explanation and also when the boy is uninterested in the cows.
