Answer:

Paradox is the literary device used in the sentence above.

Explanation:

The term "paradox" means "contrary to expectations, existing belief". It is a statement which appears to be a contradiction, but when investigated may be proved to be true. In this case the contradiction has to do with the fact that the speaker asks the addressee not be too long but, at the same time, he/she promises to wait for him/her all his/her life. Waiting for someone all your life will be long for sure. That's the contradiction.

Select the correct usage of in-text citation in APA style. a. American's attitudes toward wilderness, like the wild lands themse
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

b. American's attitudes toward wilderness, like the wild lands themselves, are constantly changing (Nash, 2014).

Explanation:

This is the correct in-text citation if you are using APA style. APA establishes that, for an in-text citation, the author and the year of publication need to be mentioned. For the name of the author, we would only include his last name. The year would be presented in the 'YYYY' format, and the two pieces of information would be separated by a comma. If the author's name was already mentioned previously with the quote, then we can omit this piece of information.
