Answer:

C. The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves only in states that had seceded from the Union.

Explanation:

Basically, the work of a historians mostly relies on studying and examining different kinds of historical sources and using them to shed a light on historical events. Of course, this is only a brief and simplified summary of their job.

But the most important thing is that they need to use facts and factual evidence.

Only answer C results from examinations of a historical material source (The Emancipation Proclamation, a written document). In that way it presents a strong evidence, which can easily be checked and verified, that support the claim.

Other answers express only opinions, without providing any evidence, and as such should never be used by historians, especially answer D which is an example of a logical fallacy.

Answer:

The answer is - Optimistic

Explanation:

Explanatory style is the way in which we explain the events that happen to us in our lives, either good or bad. There is the pessimistic explanatory style and the optimistic explanatory style.

The optimistic explanatory style are characterized by explanations for negative outcomes as being due to unstable, specific and external causes  so we do not blame ourselves 100% for things that go wrong, and that the negative events will end soon and they would not let it affect too many aspects of their lives. While positive outcomes are seen as being due to stable, global and internal causes.

Lara is using optimistic explanatory style therefore she tends to have more positive explanatory style as she takes credit for positive experiences, believes that the good things will last and they will favorably affect other aspects of her life.
