Answer:

d- Distinctive

Explanation:

Many words - especially nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs - have an emotional side.  Though not part of the official dictionary definition, the emotions and associations connected to a word are known as its connotative meaning.  Depending on how a word has been used over time, it may have a positive, negative or neutral connotation.

In this case, distinctive has a positive connotation; while <em>lonely and Eerie </em> have a negative connotation. Deserted has a neutral connotation.

You can tell when the connotation is positive, negative or neutral by the meaning of the word:

- distinctive: marking something as clearly different from others:

- Eerie: strange in a frightening and mysterious way

- lonely: (of someone) feeling sad because you are alone, or (of something) causing this feeling

- Deserted: having no people or things in it; empty:

Answer: Inactive.

Explanation:

The meaning of the word 'inert' is 'not moving'. In the excerpt, it is described that the machines were not moving, as if they were dead. The word 'inactive' has the same meaning - it stands for something that is not operating, moving or is out of function. This is why we could replace 'inert' with 'inactive' in this example.

What factors lead people to criticize their society rather than simply accept it?
34kurt

Repression experienced by a minority often leads to protest. Without sufficient resolution of the dispute, a social criticism can be formulated, often covered by political groups (political monopoly). For protesting people within a social movement, it is often frustrating to experience failure of the movement and its own agenda.

The positivism dispute between critical rationalism, e.g. between Karl Popper and the Frankfurt School, is the academic form of the same discrepancy. This dispute deals with the question of whether research in the social sciences should be "neutral" or consciously adopt a partisan view
