It is quite easy to distinguish the correct answer, as I think that the abstract concept should explain but not support mental picture, and the only option which follows this rule is the last one : <span>d. (rumors) whispers of doubt filled the empty halls like the reek of rotten eggs. The concept and a mental picture are linked and explain each other, whereas the other option just contain synonims in the brackets.</span>

WILL MARK BRAINIEST AND GIVING OUT A LOT OF POINTS!!!!!
riadik2000 [5.3K]

1. This shows that the average intelligence is not very smart. In the book, they make the very smart people dumber so that things can be "equal", which you will soon learn, or have learned already.

2. Equality and fairness are different and they got it mixed up. Equality is treating people the same, or viewing them as the same, no matter their circumstance, but fairness is making sure everyone is the EXACT same, like sharing a pizza, its only FAIR that, between two people, they each get four.

They have confused these concepts.

Hope this helps you out!!
