Dramatic irony is being used in Wheeler’s depiction of the dog fight between Jim Smiley’s champion and the dog with no hind legs.
Answer: Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
In the story ‘The celebrated jumping frog of Calaveras country’, Jim Smiley is a character who loves animals and understand them. He is the one who owns a frog and even though frog by itself knows to jump, Jim trains him on how to jump. When there’s a fight between Jim’s frog and dog with no hind leg, that’s when the dramatic irony comes up which is depicted by Wheeler. The irony took place simply because the stranger from the story tries to con Jim.
