Answer: Confirmation bias

Explanation:

If all the sources Felix has collected support his claim, it means that he has ignored any accounts that might contradict his claim.

Confirmation bias refers to the inclination to only consider the information that supports the claim one wants to defend while avoiding the information that could invalidate it.

To ensure his research is not biased, Felix should acknowledge sources that contradict his claim.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer: B, I, J

Morris is inspired to seek a life free of things by her friend, who is able to keep a house and be at peace because of the minimalist approach she has towards it. She also feels inspired by the house by the beach. When she is inside, she feels an enormous sense of peace and tranquility, which she realizes is because of the emptiness of it. Finally, she also gains inspiration from the monks, who sit in white-walled cells in order to achieve enlightenment.

The main theme from this excerpt is that the poor suffer the most in war.  This can be determined by how within the excerpt it is mentioned that it is “the humble, those who pay the most because they are poor” are “killed in masses” and are cannon fodder because “they are so many.”   It is further stated that the poor are feeble and offer the least resistance in wars because of an ignorance about the situation that led their respective nations to war.
