Brief Explanations

A paradox is a statement that seems self - contradictory or absurd but may express a possible truth. In option D, "Nobody goes to that restaurant because it is usually crowded" is self - contradictory as it claims no one goes, yet it's crowded. Option A is an oxymoron (combining opposite terms), option B is an oxymoron too, option C is a normal description, and option E is a simple question with no paradoxical element.

Answer:

D. Nobody goes to that restaurant because it is usually crowded.
