Answer:
The best answer to the question: Which quotation correctly uses ellipsis to shorten Twain´s words, would be: the second one "and there is no reason why I shouldn´t".
Explanation:
The reason for this being the correct answer comes from understanding the purpose of an ellipsis, or ellipses. Ellipses are punctuation marks, just like comas, or periods, that have the specific purpose of marking portions of a written sentence, paragraph, passage, or an entire text, that are not really needed information, but rather added, and which if removed from the text will not affect the overall comprehension of the meaning of the text. In this case, Twain saying "and there is no reason why I shouldn´t" in regards to how long he expects to live, is added information to the main passage that if removed from it will not affect the overall understanding of his meaning.
Answer:
a. the reasons for our attitudes or feelings are ambiguous
Explanation:
The Self-perception theory suggests that individuals tend to perceive their own behaviors as good or bad or acceptable or unacceptable and then this affects their own feelings and attitudes. In addition to this fact, it has also been reported that people tend to infer their attitudes and their preferences based on their behaviors not only when they are observing themselves but also when they are behaving unconsciously. This means that people infer feelings from their own behavior and actions and since these feelings can be interpreted in multiple ways hence they are ambiguous. Therefore, option a is the correct answer.
