Which answer choice describes a moment of situational irony in Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass? Douglass begins earning a wage and delivers it to Master Hugh every night after work, even though he is not obligated to do so. The masters decide that Douglass has tried to cause trouble among the other enslaved people, and he is sent back to Captain Auld as a result. Captain Auld sends Douglass to Baltimore so Douglass will be more profitable, but in doing so places Douglass in a position where escape is more attainable. Douglass is hired out to Mr. Gardner and is badly beaten for no reason after being on the job for several months.

 Captain Auld sends Douglass to Baltimore so Douglass will be more profitable, but in doing so places Douglass in a position where escape is more attainable.

Explanation:

Situational Irony refers to an occurrence that is essentially the opposite of what people thought would happen. For instance, you travelled to Florida to enjoy calm weather only for a hurricane to strike.

In the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass therefore, the situational irony would be where Captain Auld sends Douglas to Baltimore to learn ship caulking and therefore become more profitable, only for him to make it easier for Douglass to be able to escape ( which he did) than he had ever done by sending Douglas to either Edward Covey or William Freeland.
