A paradox can be seen when a character named Georgiana claims that danger is not a threat to her life.
We can arrive at this answer as follows:
- The paradox is a figure of language that presents two opposing ideas simultaneously.
- In "The Birthmark" we can see an example of this when Georgiana states that she is willing to do anything to get rid of the birthmark, even if it is a dangerous thing.
- She claims the danger is not a threat to her life.
As we know the danger is a threat to life. Affirming that life is not threatened in the presence of danger is a paradox, as it is an idea that contradicts reality.
"The Birthmark" is a story about how a birthmark can cause instability between people and personal problems.

Answer:
A. thought that silence is golden.
Explanation:
In this passage from Story of Echo and Narcissus, Echo faces the sentence of not being able to speak because of her constant talking and saying last word in conversations. The goddess Juno did not over talkative habit of Echo. Since it is a Greek myth, and myths represent the concerned culture's values, we can infer from this that Ancient Greek thought that silence is golden.
In Greek myth "Echo and Narcissus" is a tragic story of Echo and Narcissus. It is also found in Ovid's book of poetry (Metamorphoses). Echo is a nymph which annoys Juno (Hera) by detaining her by her talk when she (Juno) was searching for her husband who was amusing himself with the nymphs. When Juno discovers this, she passes sentence upon Echo that she will not be able to talk/speak, but she will only be able to utter last word of someone else's speech. The story next describes about Narcissus's indifference to Echo only because of her inability to speak. And later Narcissus too (unknowingly) falls in love of his own reflection in the story. The bodies of both Echo and Narcissus dissolve because of not finding the love from their beloved ones.
