Which excerpt from the passage contains a paradox and a pun?

"my part would not be out of place."

"larger railway stations in London."

"I merely desire information."

"whose origin was a Terminus

The correct answer is D. The phrase "whose origin was a Terminus" is a paradox because it's a contradictory statement that somehow manages to be true. The fact that Jack's beginning (origin) occurred at an end (Terminus) is a paradox. The statement is also a pun because by using the words "origin" and "Terminus," Lady Bracknell (the speaker of this line) is using the same words that train conductors used to describe their stops. The word "origin" was used to describe the first stop on a route, and the word "Terminus" was used to describe the final stop on the route. Therefore this line contains both a paradox and a pun.
