Explanation: <u>Verbal</u> <u>Irony</u> occurs when a speaker or writer speaks a statement with the intention of contradicting its literal meaning. In other words, it happens when the character speaks contraditory of what he initially intended to say. It is common in everyday speeches, plays, novels, poetry and is usually used as sarcasm. When properly used, authors can transmit their thoughts in a less bitter and more effective way.
Therefore for the phrase, the sentence that best support the meaning of Verbal Irony is: "run longer than the meetings", which also indicates the sarcasm of the situation, minimizing the bitterness of the comment.
Guessing the words you are comparing are "plain" and "plains" the correct answer is C. Homophone; the two words are pronounced the same but have different meanings and sometimes different spellings.

The harlot's influence was extensive. Her influence over the kings of the earth, she holds sway over a large portion of the earth’s population. The description of her as one “who sits on many waters” (Revelation 17:1<span>) is later explained: “The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues” (verse 15). In verse 2 she is further described as making the inhabitants of the earth “drunk with the wine of her fornication.”
So they may not have given their power to the harlot, but she did have great influence on them.</span>
