The correct option is D.
What Gulliver is trying to say in the passage given above is that, no matter how faithfully and loyally you have served the princes before, once you do something that they did not like all the services you have rendered  to them in the past will not even be remembered by them again. 
When you say 'something is of little weight' as used in the sentence above, that mean, that thing have no importance, it is something that can be easily be disregarded.

In terms of pursuing a higher education, the six questions to evaluate a source’s reliability discuss which outlets of information are credible, and which ones are not. To apply the six questions into finding sources in pursuing higher education, I would make sure to have a reputable publisher (such as a university), an author with good credentials (such as a person holding a doctorate in the area they are discussing), an unbiased publisher (such as an outlet of objectivity rather than subjectivity), a currently-dated article (keeping the information up-to-date), information that has citations and evidence to back up their statements (such as a scientific method experiment), and lastly, information regarding a common issue or dilemma that is also being discussed by other sources of information (such as political debates or environmental issues). A couple of examples of reliable and credible sources of information regarding higher education would be the articles discussing amount of debt the average college student holds, articles discussing the average graduation rate of 4-year university students, articles discussing the hot-button issue of global warming and how it is a threat to future civilizations, articles discussing the amount of students to have reportedly participated in plagiarism and cheating, and articles discussing how college professors are underpaid and exploited.

I really hope this helped! Please mark me Brainliest :-)
