Answer:

A). Marlow says the colonialists had a hole dug out of "the philanthropic desire  of giving criminals something to do."

Explanation:

"Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad is an attempt to reveal and interrogate the roots of colonialism and condemn the inner void and greed of the imperialistic pursuits of colonizers.

As per the question, the quote in which Conrad employs sarcasm while retelling Marlow's tale is displayed through option A i.e. 'Marlow displays that these 'colonialists had a whole dug out of the philanthropic desire of giving criminals something to do'.  <em>Conrad uses sarcasm in order to given an insight to the darkness of the colonizers and reveal the alternative side of their(colonizers') so called 'philanthropic lies' in a light-hearted manner which is the chief goal of sarcasm(to expose the human follies through humor and irony).</em> Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Why are subjective accounts often biased? A because subjective accounts are opinionated and emotional the narrator usually provi
Lunna [17]
The answer is: [A]: Because subjective accounts are often opinionated and emotional, the narrator provides only ONE {added note: should read: "one"—not: "on"} side of the story.
_______________________________
Answer choice "B" is incorrect.  "Subjective accounts" are not both "factual and impartial"; and definitely not "impartial". Furthermore, given an "opinion" in "indirect, nuanced ways" is not a REASON [note the word: "because" in this answer choice] that an account would be "factual and impartial".  This answer choice would be inherently contradictory.  Furthermore, examine the question: "<span>Why are subjective accounts often biased?".  The word "impartial" means "unbiased", so this answer choice would not make sense.
</span>______________________________
Let's look at Answer choice "C":  "because subjective accounts are formal and academic".  Subjective accounts may be "academic" —but not the most "formal".  Also, looked at the question:  "Why are subjective accounts often biased?"  It wouldn't make sense that the REASON an account would be BIASED is that an account is BOTH formal and academic."
 
But let's examine the final answer choice, "D: <span>Because subjective accounts make heave {sic} [note: this should read: "heavy"] use of imagery the narrator uses the setting to convey his or her outlook."  This is not a reason why subjective accounts are often biased.  Furthermore, subjective accounts do NOT necessarily make heavy use of, or necessarily ANY use of, imagery.
_______________
It is clear that answer choice "A" is the best answer and the correct answer.</span>

The word that can complete the white space correctly is the word "reconciliation." In this case, we can say that option B is the correct answer.

We can say this because:

  • The blank space must be filled with a word that provides coherence and cohesion to the text.
  • Furthermore, the word must be correct and meet the grammatical requirements of the language.
  • The word must also allow a fluid and meaningful reading, allowing the reader to understand what the text is expressing.

Thus, we can state that the only word among the response options capable of meeting all these requirements is the word "reconciliation."
