Which words are an oxymoron? B) hard pleasure
Whitepunk [10]3 years ago

Answer:

(B) hard pleasure

Explanation:

An oxymoron is a figure of speech in which two seemingly contradictory words are placed next to each other. Oxymorons can serve many purposes in a text, such as highlighting one of the concepts or forcing the reader to think carefully about the meaning of the words. In this case, the words "hard pleasure" are an example of an oxymoron, because usually pleasure is not considered to be hard.

Where is the punctuation error in this sentence?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

1.) The sentence should say, "Diego Alvarado, who was my college classmate, writes excellent book reviews and speeches."

Explanation:

A comma creates a pause in a sentence as the reader reads the text. Since this person is providing extra info about Diego, they should put a comma to separate it from the overall message.
