What makes lines 12-13 an example of situational irony
Incomplete question. I provided an explanation about irony in literature.
Explanation:
Situational Irony is a literary device used by an author to express an action in the plot of a story that is totally different from what the reader would expect.
For example, a protagonist (the leading character) in a story with so much life in one story unexpectedly and tragically died. This is ironic because the reader would naturally expect the protagonist to save the day.

Which statement best describes how a screenplay and play are similar
Both rely on a narrator to tell the story and fill in the gaps.
Both are limited to a short performance time.
Both are performed and use dialogue to tell the story.
Both rely on lengthy descriptions of the characters and the setting.
Answer:
The statement that best describes how a screenplay and a play are similar is:
Both are performed and use dialogue to tell the story.
Explanation:
While a screenplay is written to be performed on television (better called a teleplay or a script), a play includes a screenplay and others that are not performed in a theatre or on television. A play can, therefore, be in a written text form, which is distinct from one produced for theatrical performance. This implies that a play may be intended for just reading, whereas a screenplay is intended for performance and is a shorter version of a play.
