“What happened? Why are you limping?” says Miss Prokes.
“Uh... I was just walking down the stairs but suddenly I stumbled and fell,” she says.
“Claire, how many times have I told you not to rush down the stairs, but you still do not pay attention to my words,” Miss Prokes sighs and says in a lowly voice.
The correct answer is A. The second passage does not imply any indication to save people, so it is not c.
The first passage is not only about turtles, so the answer is not b.
Neither passage is talking of public libraries or beaches, so it is certainly not d.
Therefore the only logical answer is a. One is talking about efforts being made to save a wildlife habitat, while the other speaks of a bustling city and its prospects.
Hope this helps!
The story "Civil Peace" by Chinua Achebe follows a character called Jonathan Iwegbu in the aftermath of the Nigerian Civil War. The civil war was extremely disruptive and destructive, and Jonathan has lost almost everything he had. However, the aftermath of the war is not much better. Violence, crime and suffering are still rampant, and it is obvious that things will not be back to normal for a very long time.
The title "Civil Peace" is therefore used in an ironic sense. Achebe wants us to remember that, even though technically peace has been restored, the situation is still far from normal. Moreover, the violence that was common during the war is not gone, and things are still not much better for common people like Jonathan Iwegbu.

The correct answer is claim.
A claim is any statement or point of view a person might take on a particular argument. If you agree with one side of an argument, it means that you have a claim when it comes to that side. For example, if you are pro abortion, your claim is that abortion should be legal.
