Answer: The right answer is the B) Movie monsters like Godzilla and King Kong give us a chance to see ourselves more critically.

Explanation: Option A uses the passive voice ("is offered by") and, although this is not always the case, the passive voice tends to "slow down" your writing and to make it less clear and direct - you only know about the movie monsters, the ones that are offering a critical lens, almost at the end of the sentence. Option D sounds very categorical - "viewers come to understand" rather than "can" or "may" come to understand. Option C also seems confusing and neither direct nor concise, since you only know about the actors of the sentence almost at the end. Option B is the most straightforward and the one with a less formal tone. The monsters are the protagonists of the sentence, and you know about them in the first line. In addition, there are no technical words or expressions, and the syntax is not complex (subject + verb + direct object).

In order to look for their prey, owls _______.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

In order to look for their prey, owls turn their head

Explanation:

Despite giving the impression of having a thick neck because of the plumage, the owls have a very thin and articulate neck. Their vertebrae are much more mobile than the common vertebrae of mammals. In addition to the cervical spine being formed by extremely flexible vertebrae, these birds still have around 13 vertebrae in the neck, while we have only seven. All this results in this incredible ability to be always attentive to the movements that surround it.

This ability, coupled with excellent vision and improved hearing, makes the owl an excellent hunter.

Mia and her classmates are discussing the ethics of capital punishment. When Mia strongly asserts her position on the issue, her
Sav [38]

Mia 's barrier to critical thinking is 4.<em>thinking that she is too smart</em>. She thinks herself to be that smart because of her intelligence performance- IQ-  ; she has been evaluated with a much higher grade -145- than the average. As a consequence, she cannot understand - <em>she gets upset</em> - why she is asked to give an answer to her classmates' different or opposing ideas. She mistakes critical debates for questioning her intelligence; she thinks her 145 IQ is synonymous with the absolute truth.

1. Time is not correct because this is not a factor to be considered when debating critically.

2.lack of understanding. Mia undesrtands perfectly well the teacher's instructions. Her problem is not rational but emotional.

3.IQ philosophy. In fact, Mia 's intelligence has been measured using this IQ philosophy,  but it is <em>her attitude</em> what works as a barrier for critical thinking.
