Explanation:
The statement that best describes this excerpt is "Most of the sentences have a similar structure". Most of the sentences that integrate this excerpt have a similar structure because <u>all of them, except for the first one, begin with the determiner "her"</u>. Moreover, <u>most of them have a noun as head of the subject</u>. For example, in sentences 3, 4, 5 and 6, the heads are "cause", "principles", "temper" and "conduct" respectively. Furthermore, <u>most of the sentences have a subject complement</u>.

Therefore, the structure of most of the sentences in this excerpt is Subject + Verb + Subject Complement.
Answer:
A) Subsistence
Explanation:
Subsistence means the minimal resources that are necessary for survival. If you work for subsistence, you'll probably receive food, water, and lodging (internet access not included).
Subsistence can be used in a variety of subtly different ways. In addition to referring to necessities for survival, it can indicate one's means of obtaining those necessities (usually a job). And if you feel like getting philosophical, subsistence can refer to the very act of existence itself.
