Personally , I think A is the best. It has facts (less expensive, close) and it doesn’t have too much opinion. Rather than “everybody likes animals” or “my favorite animals live in the reptile house” it shows that it’s practical and fun!
Answer:
Oxymoron:
1: O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!
Paradoxes:
2: What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young.
3: I can resist anything but temptation.
4: How is it possible to have a civil war?
Explanation:
Oxymoron:
It is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
e.g Fully empty, living death, O loving hate.
Based on this definition only "O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" falls under the category of Oxymoron.
Paradox: It is similar to oxymoron, but it is usually a statement with logically contradictory statements which on investigation may or may not be logically true.
e.g "Everything I say is lie" , Barber Paradox: "A male barber shaves all and only those men who don’t shave themselves. Does he shave himself?"
As we can find out there are no contradictory terms/words, but the statements which may contradict each other.
Based on the above, we conclude that sentence 2, 3 and 4 are Paradoxes.
1. frenetic
2. egregious
3. piercing
4. shabby
