In the excerpt from Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut what is ironic about this excerpt?

“He is a genius and an athlete, is under-handicapped, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous.”

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

“If you see this boy,” said the ballerina, “do not—I repeat, do not—try to reason with him.”

“He is a genius and an athlete, is under-handicapped, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous.”

“My God—” said George, “that must be Harrison!”

“Gee—I could tell that one was a doozy,” said Hazel.

Irony can be defined as the state of affairs that is contradictory opposite to what one would normally expect.

The ironic thing about the excerpt from Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut is option B because it is contradictory for someone that is considered a genius and an athlete to be looked upon as "under-handicapped" and "regarded as extremely dangerous".
