ormal\ people are in their houses entranced by televisions. d. those who are \abnormal\ watch an inordinate amount of television.

Explanation:

In "The Pedestrian", the irony lies in the fact that the 'normal' people are inside their homes, completely absorbed by television, while the 'abnormal' one is the person who wants to go for a walk. It flips the typical idea of normalcy as being active and social, and abnormal as being isolated and sedentary.

Answer:

C. The "normal" people are in their houses entranced by televisions.
