Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer for: Augustine may have understood the shift away from paganism and toward Christianity particularly well because _____.  Is:

His mother was a Christian and his father was a pagan

Explanation:

All right, to understand this answer we need to analyze all of them carefully. First of all, Augustine was not remarkably insightful. So, option a) is incorrect.

B) option is true, Agustine did read a lot. However, that was not the reason for his understanding of Christianity. So, it is incorrect.

c) This is incorrect, we have no solid evidence to support and in case that would have happened. Augustine would have required more fundaments to create an understanding.

d) This is correct. Because he understood the shift from paganism to Christianity because his father was pagan and his mother Christian.

Thus, that is what makes d the best option. The lack of evidence in two options discarded them, and the other was not mentioned.
