Question 1 • Twilight Session 1 (Fall 26): Literature and Composition I_CThompson

Which is an example of an oxymoron?

Answer
A
“well-seeming”
B
“cold fire”
C
“Dost thou not laugh?”

Explanation

An oxymoron combines two words with contradictory meanings. “Cold fire” joins “cold” and “fire,” which suggest opposing qualities, so it is the example of an oxymoron. “Dost thou not laugh?” is a question, not a combination of contradictory terms.
