Examples of irony that Saki uses to create satire would be options C and D. Option C is irony because Bertha felt sad that she was not going to be tempted, usually you're not sad over temptation, and for Option D it was mentioned that pigs were more important than flowers which is a bit ironic because usually that would be said the other way around.
I hope this helps! Have a good day

1- <span>The ancient Chinese board game “Go” is invented long before there was any writing to record its rules. A game from the impossibly distant past has now brought us closer to a moment that once seemed part of an impossibly distant future: a time when machines are cleverer than we are.

3- </span><span>This week, though, a computer called Alpha Go <u>defeats</u> the world’s best player of Go. It did so by “ learning” the game, crunching through 30 million positions from recorded matches, reacting and anticipating. It <u>evolves</u> as a player and taught itself.
