The passage has been re written using same old sequence but added new words that can intensify the character of Mr Valentine
Explanation:
Suddenly at 8:00 a.m., the doorbell rang. Paul walked to the door to see who rang the bell. When he opened the door, he discovered a short heightened, withered, white-haired man staring up at him with piercing blue eyes.
"Mr. Candor?" the man said in a voice that was much larger than he was. The voice was like there were more men speaking behind him. He started at me and then the home as if he was some investigating agency agent. He was carrying a bag which looked like a tool bag to me
"Uh, no, sir. My father isn't home right now" replied Paul.
"Mr. Paul Candor is who I'm looking for," said the man. "Is that you?"
"Oh, yes, sir. That's me. You must be my tutor," said Paul.
"Yes, I'm Mr. Valentine. Let's get to work."
Answer:
“whose origin was a Terminus.“
Explanation:
Paradox is a contradictory assertion itself or contradictory to our expectations.
In the given example, two important words that make this paradox are origin and terminus. Origin, we can say, a start position, a position where something starts or is coming from, or develop from it. Terminus is the end of a bus or a train line, the last station, so generally the outermost point.
Pun is a wordplay that has an intentional humorous effect.
So, the excerpt <em>“whose origin was a Terminus.“ </em>is both paradox and a pun.
