The statement that best explains how knowing the definition of <em>trifles</em> is useful in understanding the given passage is the statement B. <em>It shows that older people often ignore or minimize children's feelings.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

In the given context, the noun <em>trifle </em>means <em>a thing of little or no importance.</em><em> </em>As a verb, <em>trifle </em>has a fairly similar meaning: <em>to treat without respect or seriousness. </em>If we understand the meaning of this word, we can understand the given excerpt with no problem: people tend to think that the sorrows of children are unimportant compared to those of grown-up people. If someone thinks that, it doesn't mean that it's true. That is why statement A is incorrect. Statement C is not relevant to the given passage, while statement D states the opposite of what the passage says.

Answer:

B.  A faster pace would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.

Explanation:

Mateo is speaking to the audience and refers to the audience as US indicating he is talking to fellow students about the injustice of the strict snow days.

Children are more likely to get bored listening to a talker with a professional tone or if the speaker is being more casual then the audience would think the speech is not important allowing the audience to miss the speech before it has even begun.

But by making the speech faster you are allowing the audience to begin to believe on their own about the injustice and it begins to work up their blood pressure.

Hitler was very good at getting the people to believe in what he wished because he made his speeches short and fast.

Can you tell me what is Truthiness?
aniked [119]
That's a non-existent, made-up word.    It was used in a public appearance
several years ago by a high-up political figure, who meant to say 'truthfullness'. 
The word is used now to poke fun and derision at that public figure, or any other
equally pompous, clueless, or verbally challenged one.
