The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
Maisie does not end her friendship with Laura after establishing her comparison level for alternatives because in the comparison of the outcomes when comparing the alternatives Maisie has, she sees that as her boyfriend is friends with Laura and use to hang out together, it would be very awkward to break the friendship with her knowing that she still has to see Laura when the boys get together.

In Book 3, Chapter 2 of George Orwell’s1984, Winston is being tortured and interrogated by O’Brien. This is a crucial section of the story because it reveals the true intentions of Big Brother (aka the state). Ironically, the location for this section is referred to as the “Ministry of Love.” What Winston and the other prisoners endure here is, to our way of thinking, anything but love. We would probably call it something more like the “Ministry of Brainwashing” or the “Ministry of Torture.”
The readers, like Winston, assume that the state’s goal is to punish wayward citizens and to frighten them into behaving appropriately. However, as Winston’s interrogation proceeds, the reader sees that O’Brien is not simply torturing him for information or to change his behavior, but is actually trying to change his thought process. This idea is demonstrated as O’Brien holds up four fingers and asks Winston to tell him how many fingers he sees. Winston insists that he sees four until the pain of the torture becomes too great, and he seems to begin to doubt that he really sees four. O’Brien is making him compliant, able to believe what he is told even if it flies in the face of reason and common sense.
Finally, near the end of this sequence, O’Brien tells Winston what the ultimate goal of the torture process is:
We shall squeeze you empty, and then we shall fill you with ourselves.
So, the Ministry of Love functions to create citizens that will obey the state not only out of fear, but also because they have been brainwashed to believe that the state is actually right about everything.

Answer: Inattentional blindness
Explanation: This kind of blindness does not occur due to some defect in the organic sense, so everything is okay with the eyes, it is blindness that arises as a psychological effect. For this reason, this blindness is also known as perceptual blindness because it arises as the result of the perception of one who observes, therefore, attention is directed to another object, in this case black and white. Therefore, since all the attention are directed at the observation of another black white and objects, when something that is not initially indicated to be observed appears, like red X, it escapes attention, that is, the observer is inattentionally "blind" to that unexpected object. This is, therefore, a rejection of something that is unexpected, though completely visible, because the task given has drawn all our attention to other objects or the other side.
