Answer:

The correct answer is A. It reminded them of the colonialist experience.

Explanation:

War of the Worlds was written in 1898 by scifi pioneer writer H.G. Wells.  The plots deals with a so called outer space invasion to Earth and the destruction of all mankind.

Wells wrote this novel as a parody to crtiticize British colonialism. The destructive aliens represented the British,  and the human beings are just that, human beings.

In the excerpt, we can analyze that there is a "natural process of destruction" that occurs among different groups of beings. Those "superior" vanquish "inferior" ones, so as to justify humankind being exterminated by  "more evolved" Martians.

Answer:

This is student is experiencing role conflict.

Explanation:

In sociology, role conflict takes place when a person faces demands from the different roles she plays in society. Those demands are incompatible and, therefore, pull that person in different directions, creating a conflict of statuses.

A speaker says:
Aliun [14]

Answer:

B) What makes you say that? Is it because you saw it happen, or?

Explanation:

When someone transcribes a speaker's words using the Clean Verbatim Style Guide, they omit the crutch words and other fillers and correct the non-formal truncations to formal, correct versions of these words.

Crutch words are fillers that help us think about our response by giving us some extra time. The crutch word used in the given sentence is <em>like</em>. It needs to be omitted.

Truncations are shortened versions of words. They are usually used in an informal context. The truncation used here is '<em>cause</em>. It should be corrected to <em>because.</em>

This is why option B is the correct one.
