Answer:

D.Mr. Covey's attempts to break Douglass's will with oppressive violence only serve to inspire Douglass to seek his freedom.

Explanation:

Situational Irony is the type of irony that occurs when a situation is opposite of what someone was expecting.

Option D is the best answer as it is the best example of situational irony, because Mr. Covey tried to break Douglas' will with oppressive violence but the result he got was the opposite of what he expected, which was a burning desire for Douglas to get freedom.
