Answer: b. mere gossip.

Thoreau argues that when life is not "inward and private" (when we do not concentrate on ourselves, as opposed to focusing on other people) conversation becomes superficial and degenerates in mere gossip. People end up talking about others, or about the affairs of the world. And we can be sure that people who only have this type of conversation have not had one with themselves in a long time, as they have nothing to talk about that does not involve others.

Superstition that exists in our community essay​
Blababa [14]

Answer:

There are superstitions that have been created out of some Social Considerations. Sleeping at dusk is treated as a sign that one may fall ill. It is actually that one should not be languid or lazy in the evening. Do not cut the ‘Peepal’ or the ‘Banyan’ tree that only is a superstition to save trees from destruction. Dogs are very sensitive to natural calamities and become very restless before a natural calamity actually occurs.

These are some of the superstitions which generally people keep believing in the West as well as in the East. The human mind and human soul keeps on believing that there is some hidden power somewhere which ‘governs their lives and this is the basis of some of these superstitions. The belief in them has gone on, also because some of the superstitions believed in have proved to bring about the anticipated results or effects. Maybe it is just coincidental but that makes belief in them all the more firm.

There is no logic behind belief in these superstitions but they have grown age-old and even all the scientific advancement of thought does not make them disappear.

But the less we subject ourselves to them the better, otherwise, every moment of life would be on tenterhooks.
