A. is the oxymoron. An oxymoron is a statement that contradicts itself. The word deafening is used usually when something is so loud, like a bomb or something. And silence means that it is completely quiet.

hope it helps. 100% sure that is right.

Answer from: lilGi0

A. I stood alone in the deafening silence. This is an oxymoron because if something is deafening then by default it must be loud and it would be the opposite of kindness. An oxymoron by definition is a word that is contradictory like cruel kindness or happy anger.
