Answer: “The Remarkable Rocket” is a philosophical take on self-importance because the Rocket has a narcissist mentality and mistakes sympathy with selfishness.

Explanation: The story tells the conversation between various types of fireworks, while they perform for the prince and the princess. Although the majority of the fireworks are friendly, the Rocket is not. He starts a monologue about how everyone has to adore him in order to have sympathy in their hearts and to avoid being disrespectful. He is so immersed in his wrong thoughts, that he has become over-sensitive and gets offended by everything, having then a philosophy of self-importance, and not seeing the reality of values.

Answer:

B. You have at least one ancestor who was enslaved

Explanation:

From the 1865 Special Field Orders, the issue of reparation has been recurring in the politics of United States. The qualification has been set out that descendants of slaves should be given a sort of compensation.

So, it is seen that one who has an ancestor who was once a slave should be compensated for the experiences that ancestor passed through.

This idea of descendants of slaves qualified for reparation was also brought to public discourse after Ta-Nehisi Coates published his 2014 publication of "The Case For Reparations".
