Hi there!

The following is an oxymoron, since both words mean the opposite of each other. 
The definition of an oxymoron is two words (or two sets of words) that are the opposite of each other but mean something other than that. 

Hope this helps!

Deafening Silence is an example of an oxymoron because it simply can't exist. Deafening is a word that is used to describe something that is really loud. Loud and Silent are opposites. This is how I know that statement is an oxymoron.

Answer:

Start your story with the premise of him being a alone but build his character up.

Explanation:  Are you going for a first person autobiography of a 16 year old teen with his siblings making their way in the world? That sounds cool but honestly you kinda have the story set already to me. A bunch of siblings trying to survive by themselves. The big brother is trying to keep up with taking care of his siblings.  It sounds like a great story!

Tasya [4]
The answer would be C) because it shows the humor that George the turtle was in no hurry to have kids with his female companions, so this shows that he wont hurry up and just reproduce.
