The correct answer is C.

Thoreau wrote "Civil Disobedience" to express his discontent about the government control over its citizens.

In the essay, Throreau argues that people should be allowed to act according to their believes, rather than be obliged to follow laws dictated by the mayority. This is because he believes that, even though the majority is the strongest group, it does not mean that they always have the right point of view.

 What specific information do you find when looking up a word in a basic dictionary?
ruslelena [56]

<span>When you look up a word in a basic dictionary, there is quite a bit of information you’ll find.  Of course, you’ll find the definition of the word.  If the word, however, has more than one meaning, all meanings will be presented in the entry.  The word will be spaced out into syllables.  You’ll see the phonetic pronunciation of the word.  For instance, if you look up the word, “happy,” you’ll see “hap-ee.”  In addition, some dictionaries will also present a word’s language origin (such as Latin or French) as well as the part of speech such as whether the word is a noun, verb, adjective, etc. </span>
