The excerpt of this question is missing; here is the missing excerpt:
Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo and study the map.
[This] is an island lying about 1,000 miles south of Socotra. The people are Saracens who worship Mahomet. They have four sheikhs—that is to say, four elders—who exercise authority over the whole island. You must know that this island is one of the biggest and best in the whole world. It is said to measure about 4,000 miles in circumference. The people live by trade and industry. More elephants are bred here than in any other province; and I assure you that not so many elephant tusks are sold in all the rest of the world put together as in this island and that of Zanzibar.
The correct answer to this question is C. Madagascar
Explanation:
In the excerpt, the narrator refers to an island located "about 1,000 miles south of Socotra". About the island, the narrator describes some geographical features of it, as well as, features of its people. This includes the detail "More elephants are bred here than in any other province" that shows the number of elephants bred in this island is higher than in any other region.
Now, on the map, it can be deduced the island the author describes is Madagascar (Location C) because this is the only island located to the South of Socotra (Location A), which coincides with the description in the excerpt.

In preparation for the "Odyssey" that is starting, Chris McCandless donated $24,000 to charities, prepared 5 kilos of rice, and put 123 dollars in his pocket.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Chris McCandless was a young American who decided to leave civilization and live isolated in the wild.
- He did this with almost no correct equipment to face nature and without enough food and water.
- He came from an upper-middle-class family, but he was tired of consumerism and the futility of society, so he decided to start this adventure.
- He did this right after graduating from college. After graduation, he donated $24,000 to charities, prepared 5 kilos of rice, and began his odyssey with $123 in his pocket.
Chris McCandless spent two years living in the wild, keeping in touch with no one, but he died of starvation after that time.

Answer:
The interview begins with Joseph McNeil introducing himself. In addition to revealing his name and age, he reveals where he was born and what year he was born. Then he says he believed he was always an activist, probably because of the creation he received from his country, which was a creation based on fundamental values, which generated a strong sense of justice in his life, from an early age. This sense of justice motivated him to fight for what is wrong in society and to always seek the dignity of humanity.
Explanation:
Joseph McNeil is an African American who served in the American Air Force as a major, currently retired, is known to be a strong activist for the African American cause, having participated in the group that effectively protested about trade racism that refused to hire African Americans (and other ethnicities) non-white), without assessing their capacities and using immoral, prejudiced and racist concepts as justifications.
