The example of a paradox between the two responses is "A penny saved is a penny earned." This statement appears to contradict itself because it suggests that saving money is equivalent to earning money, which can seem counterintuitive. However, it emphasizes the value of saving.
The other statement, "The fields were as wide as the sky," is a simile, comparing the vastness of the fields to that of the sky but does not present a paradoxical situation.
