Answer: The base-rate fallacy
Explanation: The base rate fallacy also refered to as base rate bias is the tendency of an individual to erroneously predict the likely outcome of a situation by over looking all relevant data that was supposed to be taken into account. It is the preference of individuating information over relevant data. Stephon over looked the statistical data that his chance of making it into the NBA is low and prefer to go with the individuating information about how his friend's brother receives a lucrative contract to play for the NBA. This situation best illustrates base-rate fallacy.
The correct answer is A. Reunifying several kingdoms
Explanation:
The Song Dynasty included around nineteen emperors who ruled China from the 10th century to the 13th century. This dynasty is recognized due to its multiple advancements in terms of government and culture. Indeed, during this dynasty, national paper money began to be used as part of the economy and a centralized government was established. This political change unified many kingdoms or territories in China as these were under the rule of the same emperor and share different elements including the use of the same currency.
