Main difference between an oxymoron and a paradox

English
1 answer:
prohojiy [21]3 years ago
4 0
An oxymoron is a phrase where two opposites are used together for an effect, sometimes emphasis, drama, or for comedic relief.  Examples are act naturally, painfully beautiful, quiet presence, etc.  A paradox is sort of like a brain teaser. It seems absurd and self contradictory and may be against the common beliefs. Examples:  Less is more, "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others" from Animal Farm, "War is Peace" from 1984, etc.<span>

What is an effective way of organizing information in an outline for a research paper?
Nostrana [21]
C should be the answer. A doesn't help you organize information, because it's "random" labeling. B includes paragraphs, which you usually don't construct in an outline bc outlines are brief. for D, it's a research paper and one can assume that all information is fairly relevant and important, plus color coding isn't a typical part of an outline. E says to list it alphabetically but that doesn't help you organize your information either because you don't necessarily want your research papers to be alphabetical, you want them to follow a logical path.
