I think it is D. Possibly A but most likely D. Hope this helps :)
The definition of straw man argument is to make a argument that wasn't presented, so you're right the answer would be A.
Answer:
It B
Explanation:
Then the only other creature who is allowed at the Pack Council—Baloo, the sleepy brown bear who teaches the wolf cubs the Law of the Jungle; old Baloo, who can come and go where he pleases because he eats only nuts and roots and honey—rose up on his hind quarters and grunted.
"The man's cub—the man's cub?" he said. "I speak for the man's cub. There is no harm in a man's cub. I have no gift of words, but I speak the truth. Let him run with the Pack, and be entered with the others. I myself will teach him."
Forming a compound subject
A compound subject refers to a sentence that talks about two or more subjects. The two subjects are combined with a conjunction such as (and, or, neither).
By forming a compound subject the two sentences:"snowshoeing is a popular activity in grand lake. snowmobiling is also a popular activity in grand lake" can be combined into one sentence as follows:
"Snowshoeing and snowmobiling are popular activities in grand land"
This new sentence now contains a compound subject (both snowshoeing and snowmobiling) which is separated by the conjunction "and".
