English

katovenus [111]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is: A. Confirmation Bias

Explanation:

Confirmation Bias refers to a cognitive distortion where we seek out information or evidence that confirms our beliefs and viewpoints. Additionally, confirmation bias involves ignoring or disregarding anything that contradicts or differs from our beliefs. In this instance, since Maria is convinced a gluten free diet is better for her, she adopts the confirmation bias because she seeks out books and research that confirm the belief that gluten-free diets are beneficial. She also joins a gluten-free community online that "confirms" the same belief.

In “First Night,” what is the most likely reason the speaker says “sleeping was hard”?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

B. The speaker is admiring nature.

Explanation:

Nikki Grimes's poem "First Night" is a short poem of 18 lines separated in three stanzas. In the poem, the speaker talks of the beauty of the night sky and addressed another person named<em> "Zuri"</em>.

The speaker was camping out at her aunt's backyard, narrating the poem as a letter to <em>"Zuri"</em>. Line 5 and 6 says<em> "Sleeping was hard with all the sparkling beauty hanging overhead"</em>. Further lines reveal<em> "Night-lights", "cluster of fireflies", </em>and<em> "the sky"</em>, all a wondrous sight for the speaker. The beautiful nature, the night sky, and its beauty made sleeping difficult for the speaker.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
