iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A). It is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

Explanation:

Paradox is demonstrated as the literary device in which the author presents a statement that is self-contradictory or incongruous juxtaposition of ideas which captures the readers' attention and reveal a latent truth.

As per the question, option A i.e. 'it is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition' most appropriately elaborates the use of paradox in the given excerpt. The author <u>incongruously juxtaposes the conventional idea of war by presenting it as an 'adventurous expedition' which eventually turn into an 'exhaustion and war of attrition' </u>to highlight the serious concern that 'the causes for the war dampens over time and gradually all that is significant is staying alive'('no cause other than our own survival'). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Explain the problem the narrator faces in "Excerpt from Bloomability"
Keith_Richards [23]

In the texts, the narrators have issues with their self-identity as they sense imperceptible and do not sense they are distinct from different people. Nevertheless, while in the "Secrets of the Cicada Summer" the author only sees herself as imperceptible, in "Bloomability" the writer is wondering if she prefers to be hidden.

Stion 3
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Number 1 is the opinion.

Explanation:

Number 2, Number 3, and Number 4 all are supported with sufficient evidence.

In Number 2, the passage refers to a real-life property, the "intellectual property", and therefore supports the sentence, providing a clear argument that the song is copyrighted.

In Number 3, the passage refers to judges and juries comparing different parts of the song. This is also what would happen in a real-life situation since copyright laws have strict policies equipped within them.

In Number 4, it provides an exact date to when the incident happened with Katy Perry and the people who have worked with her.

However, in Number 1, only because "the melody of the two songs sounding different" is not sufficient evidence for the audience to believe that the song is not copyrighted. More evidence is needed in order for this claim to be stronger.

Hope this helped!
