Answer:

the answer is a. edward was splendidly dull in the way he began every day....

Explanation:

an oxymoron is a self-contradicting phrase that consists of two words that juxtapose each other.

examples- seriously funny, pretty ugly, only chance, bittersweet

the oxymoron in option a. is splendidly dull. the adjective splendidly is used to illustrate a magnificent, vivid image, while the adjective dull is used to describe montonous objects or events.

these two words are exact opposites yet they are used to give off the meaning "absolutely dull"
