D)the nature of people to blame others for their own mistakes or shortcomings.
"The Million Pound Bank Note" (1893) is a short story by American author Mark Twain. It´s a book that explores and develops a critique of human behavior, allowing the reader to have a better understanding of human nature. In this case, Henry, who has no money to his name, is given a bank note for one million pounds sterling. Without knowing it, he has become subject of a bet.
Since a speculation does not have firm evidence, it is a hypothesize.

Answer:
"Because we always wanted to go to the zoo."
Explanation:
This sentence is only one clause and needs another -- it's best combined with "Therefore, we piled in the car for a trip to the zoo". They can be rewritten as "Because we always wanted to go to the zoo, we piled in the car for a trip there.", or "We piled in the car for a trip to the zoo because we always wanted to go there."
An alternative is to say "We always wanted to go to the zoo; therefore, we piled in the car for a trip there." A semicolon is used here to separate the two clauses. It can also be written as "We always wanted to go to the zoo, and therefore we piled in the car for a trip there." The first sentence is more 'correct' though.
"there" is used because the word "zoo" has already been used before. Of course, using "the zoo" twice is grammatically correct -- it's just that using the word "there" makes the sentence more natural and less repetitive.
