Answer:
The sentence that is an example of a paradox is the following one: She tried to quiet the silence (D).
Explanation:
Paradox means "contrary to expectations or existing belief". It is a statement which appears to be silly or self-contradictory. In this case, the sentence suggests that there already is silence in the room since she is trying to quiet it. Yet silence is already quiet, so what does she need to quiet it? If silence is not quiet, then there is noise. Still, the sentence states that there is silence in the room. What this paradox seems to suggest is that the room is not silent enough.

The answer to eliminate is C: to inform the public about the health benefits about the benefits of eating fruits & vegetables. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables has been associated with a reduced risk of developing many types of cancer. This point is no longer valid to a person that has already developed cancer, and must now receive chemotherapy as treatment. The more useful points would be to explain the role of an oncologist and to have a young survivor speak to their experiences. An Oncologist will be the doctor in charge of prescribing and overseeing treatment, so it is important that patients know what issues can be addressed via this route. A cancer survivor will give insight as to what to expect during chemotherapy, how to best deal with side effects and how to navigate the healthy system.
