Answer:

Questioned him to gain privileged information.

Explanation:

Towards the end of the passage, we learn from the speaker that Bradford <em>was a crafty old sophister. </em>

<em>Sophisters</em><em> </em>or<em> sophists </em>were pre-Socratic philosophers whose domain of expertise were skills that can be compared to modern day advocacy, manipulating arguments so as to convince their interlocutors of anything at anytime.

The primary meaning of the word <em>art </em>is skill, <em>artful </em>here meaning <em>skillful</em>. If Bradford were a sophister, that would mean he knew just what to say or do, in order to get what he wanted. And it is exactly what he did. He managed to go unnoticed and get the information he wanted from Keimer thanks to his <em>artful questions.</em>

Both! I would think more so different minded people, because if we all think the same, we would all miss good and creative ideas to improve. But with different people, you also run into the issue of disagreeing. I hope this helps!

Mashcka [7]

The correct answer is D. Thesis

Explanation:

In texts and presentations, the main point the author wants to convey is known as the central idea or the thesis statement. The term "thesis statement" is equivalent to the central idea but this term is mainly used in argumentative texts or speeches because the thesis is the main point you want to prove to the audience. Additionally, the thesis or main point is developed and supported by the author through details, reasons, facts, citations, among others. Thus, the central idea is also referred to as the thesis.
