Answer: B. We can make a lot of money from this retail opportunity.
Explanation:
Even though retail means to sell something, it is not a general substitute for the word sell. Retail refers to the act of selling or engaging in a business opportunity that requires some form of sales.
When used in a sentence, it should relate to that act rather than be used as a substitute for ''sell''. For instance, ''Jack engaged in retail by selling the cow''. Retail should refer to or describe the action - which is why it is an adjective -instead of being the action word as is the case in option 2.

-They are part of the traditional folklore of a culture, and therefore have inspired and influenced many other stories or tales throughout history.
-There is more than one version of their origins and stories, but they are always depicted as skillful, clever and defiant. Arachne defied the goddess Atena and Anansi was a prominent figure for slaves in Africa and the Caribbean.
Differences:
-Their origin is quite different: Arachne appears in the Greek mythology, while Anansi belongs to African and Caribbean folklore.
- Arachne was forced to be a spider. She was a Greek mortal who challenged the goddess Athena to a weaving contest. In the end, she was turned into a spider as a punishment. Anansi, on the other hand is a god-like creature with the ability to transform himself into a human or a spider whenever he wants to.
-Anansi is often seen as a hero who brings rain when there is fire, has unlimited stories and wisdom, and also inspires slaves. Arachne is seen as an example of what happens when mortals dare or disrespect gods.
