Answer:
C. Every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy
Explanation:
In english, we say that an element is supernatural when it cannot be explicable by scientific laws and therefore cannot be proven as real. Examples of supernatural things are: miracles, ghosts, angels, demons, ufos, superstitions.
Looking at the options we have, option C mentions that every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy. We can see that this is an example of superstition since something terrible is related to the fact that the bell rings or not. Thus, this is an example of a supernatural element.
Options A and D don't have supernatural elements (a haunted house is made by people so it's not supernatural). Option B has the luck element but it's just a thought the Dr has and not really a supernatural element.
Tanaka Hisashige was one of Japan's most revolutionary inventors and engineers during the Meiji Period. He is known for his company, Toshiba. One of his most notable works are his karakuri dolls which he made when he was still 20 years old. These dolls were powered by springs, pneumatics (gas or air pressure) and hyrdraulics (liquid pressure). The dolls are capable of complex movement. These dolls can also shoot arrows! The fun part is the dolls were programmed to miss one of four shots and do happy motions when it can hit the mark and sad motions when it can't. At age 21, he performed all around Japan.

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
She held up her hands, strong, shapely hands, and surveyed them critically, drawing up her fawn sleeves above the wrists. Looking at them reminded her of her rings, which she had given to her husband before leaving for the beach. Which is the best evidence that “surveyed” means “looked at”?
The author uses both “surveyed” and “looking” to describe the narrator observing her hands.
The author uses a verb form of “to survey” instead of “to look” to help the reader visualize more clearly.
The author is describing a character’s strong, shapely hands, with missing rings on the fingers.
The author is describing a routine, personal exchange between a wife and her husband.
Answer:
The author uses both “surveyed” and “looking” to describe the narrator observing her hands.
Explanation:
It is very common for authors to give clues as to what a word means. Those are called context clues and can be used by readers to decipher a new or uncommon word without looking it up at a dictionary. In the passage we are studying here, the author Kate Chopin used two verbs to describe the same action. She first mentions how the character surveyed her own hands. In the sentence the immediately follows, she continues describing the same action, but now saying the character is looking at her hands. From that context clue, the reader can safely conclude that "survey" and "look at" refer to the same action and are, thus, synonyms in this context.
