According to the Elizabethan definition of the term, the first one ("Lightning strikes and kills a young man") is a tragedy.
<u>The Elizabethan definition of "tragedy" underlines the idea that a tragedy always ends in disaster, which generally brings about the death of an important character</u>. Moreover, there is always a fatal flaw that leads this character to his/her tragic end. In spite of this flaw, the audience generally feels empathy for the victim. All these features can be found in most Shakespeare's works, such as <em>Macbeth</em> and<em> Hamlet</em>.
<u>The first option is a tragedy because it concludes with a man's death, which is the appropriate outcome of a tragedy according to the Elizabethan definition of the term.</u> <u>Moreover, his death is caused by a fatal occurrence (a lightning strike)</u>.
In the chapter "<em>The wheels of change</em>," the quotation develops the idea of the new clothing options for the competing women. Thus, option A is correct.
The question is incomplete as the excerpt is missing: Not surprisingly, Rinehart wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. In 1894, she testified at the annual convention of the Colorado State Medical Society about the benefits of the divided skirt for female cyclists. “It is almost impossible for a lady to ride any distance . . . with the ordinary skirt,” she told the mostly male audience. “You get too much of the dress on one side of the wheel, and you do not get enough of the dress on the other side.” Rinehart’s success brought her a number of product endorsements, including Stearns bicycles, Samson tires, and the Rinehart Skirt, a divided skirt designed in her honor by a seamstress in Denver.

Hi. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for me to tell you how Blake would respond about what makes him what he is. However, I will try to help you as best I can.
Generally speaking, we can consider that what makes you who you are are your experiences. This is because experiences are able to mold and build very personal characteristics of human beings, building a personality and behavior that is intrinsic to each individual.
To answer how you think Blake would answer this question, you will have to read the text it refers to and try to define Blake's thoughts and personality on that question through the text.
