what does paradox mean and what's an example?
Answer:
A paradox is a statement that may seem contradictory but can be true (or at least make sense). This makes them stand out and play an important role in literature and everyday life. Beyond that, they can simply be entertaining brain teasers.
Example:
For example, a character who is both charming and rude might be referred to as a “paradox” even though in the strict logical sense, there's nothing self-contradictory about a single person combining disparate personality traits.
Answer:
A phrase or statement that is hard to believe because 2 opposite facts are placed in the statement.
Example : Save money by spending it.
This is a paradox because you cannot save money by spending it. You are removing money from your account which leads to a decrease in money.
How does the narrator establish a conflict between her Mexican identity and the English-speaking country she lives?
Answer:
There is a steep contradiction between her Mexican identity and the English-speaking country. Her name in English stands for hope while in Mexican, it suggests muddiness, bad luck, and sadness. The narrator says that Mexican identity does not provide her that strength to become what she wanted to be(like her grandmother) as it considers her bad luck but the latter allows her to be more 'real' and thus, she wishes to immerse herself into her new name and identity.

Which detail from "A Cub Pilot" helps shape the central idea that if you believe in and trust yourself, no one should be able to shake your confidence?
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Which detail from “A Cub Pilot” helps shape the central idea that if you believe in and trust yourself, no one should be able to shake your confidence?
A. Mr. Bixby asks, “Didn’t you know there was no bottom in that crossing?”
B. Twain says to Mr. Bixby the he can make the crossing “with [his] eyes shut.”
C. Mr. Bixby tells Twain, ““I am going below awhile.”
D. Twain tells Mr. Bixby that he couldn’t hit the bottom of the river “with a church steeple.”
Answer:
The detail that shapes the central idea is:
A. Mr. Bixby asks, “Didn’t you know there was no bottom in that crossing?”
Explanation:
In Mark Twain's "A Cub Pilot", Mr. Bixby teaches Samuel a lesson about confidence and trusting oneself. At first, Samuel is sure of his abilities to navigate without Mr. Bixby. He even says he can do it with his eyes shut. Yet, when Mr. Bixby asks him if he is sure he can really do it, Samuel begins to doubt it. That one question was enough to make him second-guess himself. Even though he does know how to do it, he becomes unsure of his ability.
When Mr. Bixby asks, “Didn’t you know there was no bottom in that crossing?” he reveals it was a test. He wants Samuel to learn to not doubt his skills, even if others seem to doubt them.
which one of the following is a sentence fragment
1. looked at the schedule
2. her mom seems angry
3 I went to the store, but I couldn't find any cake
4. They run.
Answer:
Number 1
Explanation:
A fragment sentence does not have a subject or/and a verb.
Looking at the schedule one of the following is a sentence fragment.
What is a fragment?
The fragment contains a number of distinct components: A sense of community is extinct in today's culture, which is becoming more and more fractured. Only because the Republican Party is so divided has the Democratic Party managed to stay in power. Disconnected is an antonym.
Sentences with gaps are called fragments. Fragments are typically sentences that have lost their connection to the main clause. Removing the period from the main phrase and the fragment is one of the simplest methods to fix them. For the newly joined sentence, additional sorts of punctuation can be required.
A word group known as a fragment is one that does not fully communicate a notion or lacks a subject or verb. A sentence fragment is an unfinished structure that strives to stand alone. It isn't actually a sentence, despite what we would claim.
Therefore, Thus option (A) is correct

PLS THIS IS DUE TODAY PLS HALPPPPPPPPPPP its Lang Arts assessment 01.05 Comparing and Contrasting Mediums I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLS HALP!!!
Answer:
Explanation:The Tell-Tale Heart’ is a Gothic novel in miniature. All of the elements of the Gothic novel are here: the subterranean secret, the Gothic space (scaled down from a full-blown castle to a single room), the gruesome crime – even the hovering between the supernatural and the psychological. In just five pages, it’s as if Edgar Allan Poe has scaled down the eighteenth-century Gothic novel into a story of just a few thousand words. But what makes this story so unsettling? Closer analysis reveals that ‘The Tell-Tale Heart’ centres on that most troubling of things: the motiveless murder.
Answer:The Tell Tale Heart
By: Edgar Allen Poe
Claim: The storyteller believes that he is not crazy although he is.
From the beginning the narrator was attempting to convince the reader that he was not crazy although he was bothered over his neighbors eye. The pace of the story-line began from the narrator admitting how he had a bad feeling whenever the old man's vulture eye looked at the narrator but didn't think that the narrator was crazy over it. Soon enough throughout the story the narrator was driven crazy over the vulture looking eye from the old man and decided to kill the old man. Although from the readers perspective it seems too look like the narrator was crazy, the narrator did not think so. The narrator had planned very meticulously over the thought of killing to old man and acted out on it. Once the deed was done, the police came by to check because a neighbor reported suspicious activity by the old man's home. The narrator let the police in the house to search it and the narrator had explained how the old man was gone to visit a friend out in the country and the police believed him. But the narrator's guilt got to him and put him on edge. He behaved more and more suspicious and finally let a cry out of admitting to killing the man because the narrator thought the policemen were on to him. The way that the mood affected me was that the narrator had begun to admit that he was a normal person, perfectly fine. But once the narrator put out the exposition it started to give out the expression that he was crazy and him denying that he wasn't crazy made the narrator even more suspicious. To conclude my claim, I see that narrator is genuinely crazy and that even though he convinced his own self and attempted to prove the reader he wasn't crazy, in the end he was.

Answer:
A letter to the Principal.
Explanation:
To,
The Principal,
ABC School,
12.02.2020
Subject: Practices to be discouraged and habits to be developed among students.
Respected Ma'am,
With due respect, I John Markley, the Senior Prefect, want to mention the practices that should be discouraged among the students of our school. The two main practices are- bringing mobile phones in the school and the getting aggressive very frequently. These days, it has been observed that some students are bringing mobile phones in the school and instead of attending classes they sit in the playground to use their mobile phones. This practice of keeping mobile phones in the school premises is very dangerous to the future of students. It has been also noted that the students get aggressive when they are asked to submit their mobile phones.
However, there are two habits that we should develop in our students to make them better citizens. These are- to tell a truth in all circumstances and never take a short-cut for success. We should develop the habits of speaking the truth and never take a short-cut to become successful among our students. Short-cuts often lead to the wrong paths and more problems to achieve the goal. Therefore, the teachers should organize some events to better know their students and develop new and better habits among them.
A more focus on the above points will make a difference between ours and other school's students.
Thanking You
Yours truly
John Markley (Senior Prefect)
