Answer:

<u>Paradox</u>

Explanation:

In literature, a paradox is a statement that may seem silly, contradictory, and usually opposite to what is commonly believed or accepted, but upon close inspection, it has a great potential to be true (and is true most of the time). One common example of a statement using paradox is "This is the beginning of the end", The beginning and the end may look like two completely opposite concepts, however, in reality, we can find that some "ends" actually mark the "beginning" of something else.

Which sentence is written in passive voice? As I said these words I busied myself among the pile of bones of which I have before
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

It seemed to have been constructed for no special use within itself…

Explanation:

There are two types of voices when it comes to the English grammar and these are the <em>"passive voice</em>" and the<em> "active voice."</em>

"Passive voice" means that<u> the recipient of the verb's action is the</u><u> "subject."</u> This is opposite to that of the active voice wherein <u>the subject is the one which acts upon its verb.</u>

The subject above is "It" and it is the recipient of the verb "have been constructed."

So, this explains the answer.
