Oxymoron; a figure of speech in which contradictory terms appear in conjunction.

i believe that he did value looks over personality, and yes, she most definetly WAS a rebound from rosaline. tybalt was her cousin, and the person she was told to marry was paris. she didn't discover this fact untill AFTER she had married romeo, so it wasn't that she didn't want to get married to someone else. you are right, they didn't know each other when they eloped, but in their minds, it was the right thing to do.

I need central idea of this text
netineya [11]

Answer:

Love and Grief are the main ideas in this story.  You must remember that any mother, wherever she is from, and whatever religion she may be, loves her child.  A mother does not love her child differently than someone in another culture.  It is universal.  Not only is it universal, it is eternal.  Mother's have an instinct to protect their young.

1984 by George Orwell
Afina-wow [57]

Here is a suggestion for you:


When looking deeply into the characteristics of the character Winston Smith within the novel _1984_ by George Orwell, we can see that he has plain, ordinary, and everyday qualities that make this character quite believable in terms of “this could be a real person.”   As such, it is possible for anyone to see himself or herself as Winston Smith, which makes the novel all the more believable.  One thing you could do (because the directions you provided do not state the modern day equivalent needs to be famous; however, it is always best to ask your teacher if this would be okay) is draw correlations between yourself and Winston Smith.  Again, the characteristics of Winston are such that it is possible for most readers to see elements of themselves within the character of Winston.  As such, you could be quite possible for you to present arguments for you seeing yourself as a modern day equivalent, and you would obviously know yourself better than anyone in existence (or fictional) so much so that the arguments for this equivalence could be quite strong.
