Correct answer: Observing traffic laws in exchange for driving on the highway.

Traffic laws are established by the government, and roads and highways are built by governments (local, state and federal). The "social contract" refers to an implicit agreement between a government and the citizens of the society overseen by that government. Examples that have to do with business exchanges--such as paying an electric bill in exchange for electricity usage--are examples of business contracts rather than "the social contract."

Philosophers of the Enlightenment era were famous for arguing the idea of a "social contract." According to this view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed. This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler. One of the most influential of the social contract theorists was John Locke, who repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his First Treatise on Civil Government. In his Second Treatise on Civil Government, Locke then argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting and enhancing their own life, liberty, and property.

Answer:

The correct response is: Sasha is in the final stage of grieving her partner's death as demonstrated by her newfound self-reliance and greater appreciation for life.

Explanation:

According to psychiatrist Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, there are 5 stages of grief: denial ; anger ; bargaining; depression; and acceptance. Sasha experiences a major change in her life and she probably went through stages of grief where she felt upended about many things. In the acceptance stage of grief, a person starts to see there are more good days than bad, although they may still feel remorse and longing from time to time, which is normal. At the acceptance stage, a grieving partner can start to feel fortunate for having time with their deceased partner and for having fond memories.
