Answer:
OD. I always get tired at 3 o'clock. Therefore, I will get tired at 3 o'clock today
Explanation:
Deductive reasoning is all about using context clues. You're basically like a detective: "If this clue means this, then I know what that means." You are using information to reasonably say that this other information is true. Let's go over the answers.
A. This one also has some common sense. Oranges are their own fruit. Carrots are their own vegetable. Plus: just because carrots and oranges are both the color orange does not mean that they are the same thing. Two things can have the same color but be entirely different things. Water and blueberries are both blue, but that does not mean that they are the same thing.
B. So from the first sentence we learn that Tim always wears a hat. He never takes it off! Then in the second sentence it says that he won't wear a hat tomorrow. That doesn't make sense. Those two statements clash with each other. One says that he always wears a hat, the other says that he won't wear one tomorrow. Therefore, not deductive reasoning.
C. Just because cities are populated does not mean that Chicago is also populated. It's all about wording: the first sentence does not say that ALL cities are populated. In real life, not every city is full. Some are small cities and don't have that many people.
D. The first sentence says that the narrator always gets tired at 3:00. The second sentence says that they will get tired at 3:00 today. This does make sense. The two sentences go hand in hand with each other. The person always gets tired at 3:00, so they will also get tired at 3:00 today. It makes sense, so this is an example of deductive reasoning.
I feel as if the answer is C - "Daylight is experienced in business ventures."
Since, in the passage it states multiple times of Daylight's construction plan.

In the short story “The Gift of Magi,” the American writer O. Henry speaks about the feeling of love and the emotions related to it. The couple Della and Jim are so much in love with each other that they would sacrifice anything for their partner to be happy. Since they are poor, they both fall short in arranging money for the Christmas gift. Della wanted to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, but her savings were not enough for the gift. O.Henry cleverly gives a hint to his readers about Della’s step that how she would manage the money by introducing the readers to her beautiful and long hair. As soon as she looks in the mirror, she notices her hair and runs straight towards the shop where the hair articles are sold. Her rolling tears too makes the readers predict about her action which she would take to arrange the money.
