Answer: From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.
Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat . . . [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men (and animals) will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.

Article 1 mostly consists of facts that can be verified, along with some commentary. The commentary includes saying what might happen to Raymond Valido.
The quote from article 2, "The Federal Election Commission reported Wednesday that its initial investigation..." indicates that it is reporting on the unfolding investigation. Witch hunt is usually used to describe an investigation of accused people, because of opinions. Witch hunt involves opinions in its meaning, so it is used in biased situations.

The impossibility of escaping fate
Answer: Option A.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The following excerpt has been taken from the poem written by Virgil. The name of the poem is "The Aeneid". The main message or the theme of the poem is that one can not run away from the fate and destiny. What is written in the fate of a particular person, will happen. There is no running away from that.
There are certain lines in the poem which prove this theme of impossibility of escaping the fate. Those lines are "Arms, and the man I sing, who, forc'd by fate", "The Latian realm, and built the destin'd town". These show that destiny can not be escaped.
