Question

what does the verbal irony in this text suggest?
\it was my good luck to have to study for a test while all my friends went to the water park,\ oliver remarked.
oliver was happy to stay home.
oliver was upset about staying home.

Explanation:

Verbal irony involves saying the opposite of what one means. Oliver says it's "good luck" to study while friends go to a water park, but studying instead of having fun is typically unpleasant. So his statement is ironic, suggesting he's upset about staying home (not actually happy about it).

Answer:

Oliver was upset about staying home.
