Answer:

The statement that BEST explains why this quotation from the selection includes jargon is The phrase eurocentric curricula would not be understood by most people.

Explanation:

The question is missing the Excerpt from Music to My Ears by John Devine, here it is:

My meanderings into the shaded grove of poetry seemed like the perfect escape from my father’s medical mumbo jumbo until I realized in college that my literature professors often sounded as poetic as a ten-car pileup. I recall in particular one professor who asked us to read a poem by Alexander Pope called The R-ape of the Lock, a humorous poem about a young man who cuts off a wisp of a young woman’s hair. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? Well, before I knew what was what, my young professor demanded that I “deconstruct” the poem and analyze it for evidence of what she called “commodity fet-ishism.” “I want to read the thing,” I told her, “Not pull it apart.” And when I asked her what commodity fet-ishism was, she looked at me as if I were some inferior life form. “Look it up!” Said she, frowning. I had to pull an all-nighter to finish that assignment in time. It wasn't long before she had me writing a paper on the evils of eurocentric curricula. I finally put my foot down when she demanded that I attend her lecture on the perils of Islamaphobia.

By reading this excerpt from "Music to My Ears " by John Devine we can see that the narrator is having a hard time trying to understand what the professor was demanding, then in the quotation, we have the use of jargon as a critic and emphasis of the way the professor miscommunicate because of the insistence of using jargon.

melomori [17]

The phrase "I think, therefore I am." was spoken by the French philosopher Descartes. He created this phrase to affirm the importance and the existence of absolute doubt. For Descartes it was necessary for man to attain absolute knowledge, but to achieve absolute thought it was necessary for man to doubt everything and everything, including God, the world, all existing concepts and even his own existence. However, man could not doubt that doubt exists, because to doubt it was necessary to think and thought made things real. Therefore, if man is able to think, he is able to exist.
