Answer:

B). Many pilots come to commercial airlines after having had military training.

Explanation:

'Biased language' is demonstrated as the use of a language(words or phrases) that proposes a prejudiced or partial representation of an issue that excludes the other(people) or fails to consider them while reaching a conclusion or judgment. The authors are required to be unbiased and not include their personal opinions or perceptions while relating a text as it may hurt the sentiments of some groups.

In the given question, the option that exhibits a biased language is option B as it offers a prejudiced or biased conclusion 'many pilots come to commercial airlines after military training' which excludes the ones who do not join. Thus, it offers an unfair representation and hence, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

The correct option is letter B) While Rebecca wants to go swimming every day, Arnold only wants to stay home and play video games.

Among the options given, letter B is the only one that presents a compare/contrast organization of ideas. As a matter of fact, it is contrasting Rebecca's and Arnold's preferences. The conjunction "while" helps convey the idea of contrast by stating that, while one element wants one thing, the other element wants something else. While Rebecca would rather go swimming, Arnold prefers to stay home. The difference between their preferences are made clear by the sentence's organization.
