Answer:
Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau.
Explanation:
Henry David Thoreau's essay "Civil Disobedience" was a result of his arrest after he refused to pay the toll tax of $1. This refusal was his way of protesting against the Mexican war and the practice of slavery which resulted in his arrest. The experience of being in prison led him to write about it in his essay where he stressed upon the importance of asserting one's rights even if it means going against the law, if one views the laws as unjust. With this belief, he protested against the practice of slavery and the war, for he believed that they are discriminatory against a particular race. And in practice of this protest, he refused to pay the toll tax fee that funds the war. This arrest eventually led to the production of this literary work.

Answer:
a
Explanation:
There are three (3) main articles used in English language and these are;
1. An: it is a word that is mainly used before words beginning with any of the vowel letters (a, e, i, o and u). It's an indefinite article used for modifying non-specific (unspecific) nouns.
2. A: it is mainly used with consonant sounds or letters. It's an indefinite article used for modifying non-specific (unspecific) nouns.
3. The: it is a definite article used before nouns or superlative adjectives to indicate uniqueness.
In this scenario, the most appropriate article to use is "a" because it describes the position held by Thapa.
Mr. Thapa is a university professor.
