    A. Anna asks Beth to go to the beach, and Beth replies, "Sure, I'd love to lay in dirt and be roasted like a pig at a barbeque!"

    Sarcasm is a form of irony. It is when a person says the opposite of what they really mean. In option A, Beth does not want to go to the beach because she doesn't enjoy sitting in the sand and getting burnt by the sun. We know this because she compares the sand to dirt and being in the sun to a pig roasting at a barbeque. The other options are true statements. The rainbow does match the crayons, waffles are a breakfast food, and Linda's writing was stellar.
