Answer:

1.) D. <em>"....things have to be done bit by bit."</em>

<em>"....today, ecological science agrees.....</em>

<em>2). D. The concept of elders passing on life lessons to the young is crucial to his culture.</em>

Explanation:

1. The ability to synthesize the author's own experience is most convincingly exemplified in the last option as it states that things have to be done gradually and step-by-step and even ecological science substantiates the point. It reflects the ability to amalgamate the experiences of life into learning that offers a lesson for life.

2. The most reasonably inferred result as the author's treatment of storytelling in his essays would be the last option as these stories state and demonstrate the passing on of life lessons from elders to young which is a crucial element and purpose of storytelling.

The poem "The River Merchant's Wife: A Letter" by Ezra Pound describes the transformation that a young girl undergoes when she finds a partner. At the beginning of the poem, the girl describes how she was timid, and how she kept her head down.
