Answer and Explanation:

The author points out that some pilots may feel tempted and motivated to perform dangerous maneuvers while flying an airplane. The adrenaline of that moment is very exciting and can cause pilots to take risks even if they are later punished. The problem with these maneuvers is the danger they present and the apprehension they can present in cities due to the fear that citizens may feel when they see risky and completely unpredictable maneuvers.

This can be seen in the following lines:

"While prohibited, flying under the bridge wasn’t as dangerous as some of the other activities they engaged in. Stories of complaints lodged by northern New York residents appeared under the headline: “Dangerous Flying of Airmen From Canada Draws U.S. Ire.”"

" The article acknowledged the temptation it was to trainee pilots to mimic the fighter pilots in combat as they “darted and dodged and strafed.”"

When the narrator prepares his canoe for the trip to pick up Sheila and take her to the dance, he automatically puts his fishing
swat32

Did you forget to say that this question is about "The Bass, The River, and Sheila Mant"

Answer:

The narrator's automatic actions move the plot because they show that Sheila is no more important than her fishing habit. This can create conflicts that will move the story.

Explanation:  

Although the narrator had pledged to take Sheila Mant to the dance, he didn't think twice before starting fishing halfway. Even if the narrator does this automatically, he shows how the habit of fishing this intrinsic in him, so much that it puts Sheila in second place in his priorities, since the fishing can make him late, or even that the boat tip over and he can't take you to the ball.

This moves the plot because it can be the source of several internal and external conflicts.

Alik [6]

Answer:

D. <u>social referencing.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Social referencing is one of the most important mechanisms that help a child understand the world around them. Social referencing takes place when an infant observes the facial expressions and affective displays of adults to measure and regulate their own behavior towards situations, people, and objects. In the context provided, Jaden did not know if the clown represented something bad or dangerous, or if it represented something harmless. She only knows the clown is not only safe but supposedly funny after noticing her mother's facial expression and reaction to the clown. Jaden has used social referencing.
