Answer:
The answer are the words "stalk and defenseless."
Explanation:
The words that make it obvious how the author feels about the birds are stalk and defenseless because the author is describing how the fish in the lake fall victim to the birds. It seems the author does not like the birds for their instinct to stalk their prey by watching the fish in the lake closely. The author seems dismayed that it would only take the ospreys a moment to catch the fish who have no way to defend themselves against the birds.
Primitive in this context is closer to innate or previously existing in the person.
Explanation:
Primitive in the sense of psychology for Freud was always something that had existed in the person without any outside influence that would inform their behavior.
The primitive action is one that the person is ingrained to perform in the way of their own psyche and has nothing to do with outside influence over them.
This is developed in the concept of displacement and familiarization of the death principle and the life principle of Freud that is being discussed hire.
This is the correct way to say it.
