Question

Which situation is most clearly ironic?

A. A trade route between Asia Minor and Europe
B. A duel between two aristocralis over an insult
C. A powerful vampire who is a strict vegetarian
D. A train that connects Sendai, Tokyo, and Osaka

Answer 1

C. A powerful vampire who is a strict vegetarian

Answer 2

C

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, irony is a state of affairs or an event that deliberately is contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result. A very powerful vampire choosing to not use his power and instead being vegetarian fits this definition. However, A and D, are neither surprising or humorous. B was actually a very common affair between aristocrats and is therefore neither surprising or humorous. This leaves C as the answer.
