Answer:
The best option to make inferences about characters is:
Textual evidence + prior knowledge + human nature
Explanation:
An inference is a conclusion based on some evidence and reasoning.
Evidence in making inferences about characters is textual evidence, and reasoning is prior knowledge + human nature.
Prior knowledge is everything we have learned. For example in this case, it could be how a King behaves, how he should be, how people of certain race, geography or ethnic group behave etc., what are their characteristics, how people in specific situations and conditions behave (e.g colonized people) - all this is part of our prior knowledge. Knowledge about human nature (this too is part of prior knowledge) is also considered while making inferences about characters.
Setting + assumption is not a correct strategy because although setting influences a character (not to much extent) but assumption is never allowed for making an inference.
Making generalization is also a wrong strategy because generalization are hardly correct.
Using direct characterization and eliminating textual evidence, prior knowledge will also lead to reaching a wrong inference.
Answer:
The answer is option B and D.
Explanation:
Cryptography is the study and practice of securing communication to prevent third parties to access private messages or information. This is especially relevant on the internet and the Information Age that has came with it.
According to the author's claim, the power of cryptography and the ability to protect information with it nowadays, would guarantee the success of the Information Age. The main details that support this claim are B and D.
First, we have the role encryption has to play in such areas like business, as said in option B, and how it could facilitate the whole process, which demands more strict security protocols regarding the information flow in between. Then there are the resources available to improve said protocols and reinforce the security as well, which is possible if the government develop a decent technology infrastructure that can be optimized for surveillance, as said in option D. This can also lead to a better experience to keep improving the infrastructure for safe encryption.
Both details support the main point of the claim: how cryptography is closely related to the success or failure of the Age of Information as it is known by how the information flows and how can this affect the privacy and security of third-parties in a good or bad way.
