I feel that the missing word is most likely "lens" - check if it's among your options.

When something is compared to a lens through which the word is seen, it means that the world is seen through a certain perspective, that it's using a certain interpretation: here that of literary theory.

What word best fits this sentience? ----, the constitution breaks the U.S. Government into three branches. Pick one of the four
Airida [17]

Answer:

B). Instead

Explanation:

As per the question, the most appropriate word to complete the given sentence would be 'instead.' Thus, the complete sentence reads as:

'Instead, the constitution breaks the U.S. Government into three branches.'

<u>It offers a complete and accomplished meaning. It implies that 'in comparison to the present two branches of the federal government, the constitution instead divides the United States Govt. three equal yet independent branches</u>.' The other word fails to go as per the context of the sentence and convey an incomplete thought as they either include a subordinating conjunction('although', 'before') or require contextual background(as 'in conclusion'). Thus, <u>option</u> <u>B</u> is the correct answer.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

A). Shaping.

Explanation:

As per the given description of Marc's behavior and his mother's attitude to amend his habits exemplify that his mother is employing 'shaping' as it would establish his behavior which was previously not performed. This concept was first defined by B.F. Skinner who was a leading psychologist advocating 'behaviorism'. 'Shaping' is quite commonly employed by teachers and mothers to inculcate or <em>reinforce certain behavior in kids that would help them to perform better and reach nearer to their targets.</em> Similarly, Marc's mother is reinforcing 'successive approximations' to instill a behavioral change in him and attain the desired goal(when Marc begins to do his homework regularly). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
