question 2 of 20
which scenario is the best example of irony?

a. the department of justice becomes completely corrupt.

b. a dragon suddenly appears in the middle of a rock concert.

c. a person who spends her life drifting finally settles down.

d. the vice president makes a deal with a foreign company.

Explanation:

Irony involves a contrast between expectation and reality. The Department of Justice is expected to uphold justice and integrity, so its complete corruption directly contradicts this core purpose, making it the clearest example of irony. The other options lack this sharp contrast between intended purpose/expectation and actual outcome.

Answer:

A. The Department of Justice becomes completely corrupt.
