A paradox is something that contradicts itself. An allegory is a story used to reveal a hidden image. A hyperbole is something that is <span>exaggerated and isn't meant to be taken literally. Irony is something more humorous and is when events contradict what somebody was expecting or believed. Knowing this, what do you think would be better? Try to read again and look for clues. If you look through, you might be able to tell it is giving off a humorous vibe, I would go for irony, but I might be wrong. Hope I am able to help you! :)</span>

Describe one day experience as a doctor q​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Hi there~

A one day experience of a doctor would probably be very hard. Doctors have to make sure patients are healthy and in good shape before they can live on their own; it isn't the most easiest job in the world.

Being a doctor requires you to work in a MED hospital for 10 years and in those 10 years you would have to keep studying the genetics of the human body and how to fix that problem in the body, etc.

Hope this helps

Answer:Fredrick Douglass was a slave that thought that all slaves should be free and Captain Canot was a slave trader that thought that slaves were only good for making money and for manual labor. As you can see with Fredrick Douglass he stated that when he wanted to learn how to read from the wife of the new slave owner the slave owner said that there would be no use for a smart slave and that they should remain ignorant so Fredrick Douglass wanted to help as many slaves as he possibly could to have them to learn how to read so they don't have to be slaves anymore but on the other hand with Captain Canot he had his slaves be kept on close observation and the slaves living conditions on the ship were not good what so ever and with Fredrick Douglass's owners they feed, clothed, and housed the slaves in a similar fasion in which Captain Canot did.
