We can see a paradox in the lyrics of "Breakeven" in the line:

"Just praying to a God that I don't believe in."

<h3>What is a paradox?</h3>
  • A paradox is a sentence that presents two opposing ideas that complement each other.
  • The paradox intends to create a sentence that expresses the complex, confused and contradictory feelings, which has the power to express the emotions of the speaker.
  • Despite seeming contradictory, the paradox presents aligned ideas, with opposing meanings that harmonize.

The question above does not show the Spenser poem to which it refers, but it is possible to say that the paradox is developed in the poem to show opposing ideas, confused emotions, doubts, and misaligned thinking.

I myself have ready books.<br><br> Is this Reflexive or<br> Intensive
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The answer should be reflexive

Explanation:

Because if you cut 'myself' out, it doesn't really make sense. A reflexive sentence is usually like, 'I myself went out to the mall last night'. If you cut myself out of this sentence it would become, 'I went out to the mall last night' which still makes a lot of sense. In the statement, 'I myself have ready books', when you cut out 'myself' it becomes, 'I have ready books' which does not really sound right to me. So it would be a Reflexive pronoun!!!! If it makes sense when you remove a 'self' statement then it is an Intensive pronoun. If it does not make sense, then it isn't.

Hope this helped.

If attempting to convince a group of young mothers to vote "Yes" on a proposition to make texting and driving illegal, what pers
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Appeal to their emotions. They would be worried about the safety of their children, so it would be best to convince them that distracted drivers/distracted driving could be a threat to their children. By explaining to them that teens often die in distracted driving accidents, or that distracted drivers could hit other cars causing an accident their children might be involved in, they will be more likely to vote yes.
