Which sentences in this excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams" seem to foreshadow Dexter’s future obsession with “possessing” Judy Jones?
Now, of course, the quality and the seasonability of these winter dreams varied, but the stuff of them remained. They persuaded Dexter several years later to pass up a business course at the State university—his father, prospering now, would have paid his way—for the precarious advantage of attending an older and more famous university in the East, where he was bothered by his scanty funds. But do not get the impression, because his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich, that there was anything merely snobbish in the boy. He wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves. Often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges.

A paradox exists when a seemingly contradictory statement is given that, upon closer examination, reveals a compelling truth. Lo
Hoochie [10]

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.

Compare the words director and shatter. How are they alike? How are the different?
rosijanka [135]

<u>ANSWER</u>:

Since both the words end with similar sounds, Director (tor) and shatter (ter), they seem to be alike. They both differ entirely in their meanings and parts of speech.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

Director and Shatter sound similarly as they end with a similar kind of pronunciation. But they differ in meanings as director refers to the person who manages the affairs of a business and shatters refers to the sudden breakage.

It also varies in their parts of speech as Director is a noun and shatter is a verb.
