"The Death of Ivan Ilyich" is a short novel written by León Tolstoy and published in 1886.

The correct order of events in Ivan Ilyich's life as depicted in chapter 5-8 is the following:

Ivan Ilyich tries to read a Zola novel while convincing himself that he is healing, but his pain returns worse than ever.
Ivan Ilyich visits a specialist who tells him that his vermiform appendix is the problem.
Ivan Ilyich tries to use the logic of Caius the mortal to try to make sense of dying but fails.
Ivan Ilyich tries to distract himself from his death by resuming his professional duties as a judge but fails.
Ivan Ilyich watches his family leave to go to the theater and finally gains some peace.

This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the excerpt from Dispatches.

By autumn, what had begun as an adventurous expedition had turned into an exhausting, indecisive war of attrition in which we fought for no cause other than our own survival.

Which statement best explains the paradox in the excerpt?

a. it is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

b. it is unusual that soldiers should ever be forced to fight merely to survive.

c. it is surprising that the expedition turned out to be so exhausting and difficult.

d. it is unfortunate that the soldiers did not have the easy time they had anticipated.

Answer:

The statement which best explains the paradox in the excerpt is:

a. it is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

Explanation:

A paradox can be defined as a statement that at first may seem to contradict itself or simply to be absurd. We all know how horrific war is. Battles involve suffering, pain, trauma, killing/dying, or becoming forever disabled. For that reason, it seems absurd that someone would describe war as "an adventurous expedition." An adventure is often an activity seen as both exciting and dangerous. However, it is not fatal. We do not expect to go on an adventure and die.

Tamiku [17]

He says this because he is discussing the Fourth of July -- Independence Day.

Douglass says, however, that not everyone is independent. Some Americans, he reasons, are far from independent -- namely slaves. It is ironic that, on a day Americans celebrate freedom, a large portion of the population is anything but free.

I think 1 is non-sequitur and 2 is ad hominem. Ad hominem is when you attack the person rather than their position on the issue. In #2 their verbally attacking the person for not supporting veterans.
