Explanation:
Russia offered to sell Alaska in 1859 because they were in debt from the Crimean War. The U.S. did not initially make this purchase because of Civil War debts.
At the time of the purchase, America was still in a expansive mood. No one knew of any resources in Alaska then. Oil was not a big one for anyone. Alaska was even called "Stewart's Folly" (Stewart was a secretary of the interior) and a waste of federal money. (The dang place went for about 10 cents per square mile!)
Stewart wanted to simplify the map of North America and to block the British in Canada from further expansion as the USA and the British Empire were still not the best of friends.
Also, the Russians felt they could never have a firm hold on such a distance colony, needed some cash in a hurry because of a pending war with the Ottoman Empire and the Tzar on the throne at the time was a bit wacky.
It was strictly a move by the USA to secure the last major piece of real estate still open in North America.

An example that I would give of a situation in which a real-life problem has to be solved or a decision has to be made using good judgement would be the case of deciding what to study in university:
<em>"When I had to decide what I was going to study, I immediately put journalism out of my mind, as I believed it did not suit my personality. Even though I loved writing, I had always imagined that journalists had to be aggressive, </em><em>overconfident</em><em> and pushy, and that news only happened in other, more interesting places. I could not see how that could fit me. The school counselor I talked to kept telling me that this was not the case, but my </em><em>belief perseverance</em><em> would not let me listen to other information. In the end I decided to go for accounting. I believed that accounting was only about boring numbers, and for the first few months, I was responsible of </em><em>confirmation bias</em><em>, as that was the only thing I noticed about my studies. However, over time, I grew to like the path I had chosen, and I do not regret it."</em>
