D. <em>admirable </em>This is the correct option.

The line belongs to Theodore Roosevelt's speech " The man with the muck-rake" given in 1906. Roosevelt is criticising what some journalists have done: to criticise his government, mainly. So, in his opinion , the journalists or people who laugh at the dishonesty of a public man are empty -headed - <em>vacant mind</em>-. If there is nothing in their minds, they will be unable to feel. The fact they are empty headed has stopped these people from developing any good emotion. For Roosevelt truth and love are examples of high emotions. The people he is angry with cannot love or tell the truth.

These options are not right:

A. negative  ( Emotions are  "high". This is a possitive connotation).

B. angry ( Emotions are not angry. Roosevelt is angry).

C. indifferent ( Roosvelt thinks the opposite).

1- In Bradbury's <span>Fahrenheit 451, all books are banned and burned upon discovery. In the Nazi Germany, books considered to be subversive to the regime would be burned to keep the population from generating ideologies that could challenge Nazism.

2- Was Bradbury correct in his literal interpretation of </span><span>“Where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.”? In some way, yes. When knowledge is not only limited, but also controlled, the people tied to it are led to their demise. Just like in the novel, people in Nazi Germany who owned <span>subversive</span> books were punished not only by the burning of their property, but also by the discrimination that followed after such a public form of consequence. If a person was seen being confiscated <span>subversive </span>books, they may be considered as an ally to the Jews, which meant pretty much the same as being the enemy back then. Because of the extreme exclusion and suffering that followed this punishment, it's almost like dying a slow death.
In this way, the phrase </span><span>“Where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.” is both literal and figurative.</span>
