Answer:
D). He gives an example of two phrases that lost popularity with writers.
Explanation:
The authors provide a variety of evidence (factual or logical information, statistical data, etc.) to substantiate their claim and establish the credibility of their claim.
In the given excerpt, Orwell provides 'an illustration of two phrases 'explore every avenue' and 'leave no stone unturned' that lost popularity with writers'. This illustration reasonably backs his claim that 'Silly words and expressions often get disappeared not because of a specific evolutionary process but because of the conscious action of the minority' that assists the readers to accept and believe in his claim. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Because in the text it says Hummingbird just had to try some of their nectar. He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves.
It was late in the day when Hummingbird woke up. He stretched his wings and glanced at the sky. He could just make out the shape of Heron, flying slowly but surely toward the dead tree. She was almost done with the race! Hummingbird zipped into the air and flew as fast as he could, but it was too late. Heron reached the tree first.
And it the other story The King Of The Sharks it says: Exit fishermen. Prince creeps down to the water's edge and wraps the cloak around his shoulders before jumping into the sea. A shark fin can be seen heading out into the water. Enter fishermen.
Fisherman 1: I knew it! That trickster boy has been stealing our fish.
Fisherman 2: It's not right, using magic to rob honest people of food and a living.
Fisherman 1: He must go
And he got caught but in the answers it says that he does not get got so the Reasonable answer is C.

Answer:
Anthropogenic climate changes stress the importance of understanding why people harm the environment despite their attempts to behave in climate friendly ways. This paper argues that one reason behind why people do this is that people apply heuristics, originally shaped to handle social exchange, on the issues of environmental impact. Reciprocity and balance in social relations have been fundamental to social cooperation, and thus to survival, and therefore the human brain has become specialized by natural selection to compute and seek this balance. When the same reasoning is applied to environment-related behaviors, people tend to think in terms of a balance between “environmentally friendly” and “harmful” behaviors, and to morally account for the average of these components rather than the sum. This balancing heuristic leads to compensatory green beliefs and negative footprint illusions—the misconceptions that “green” choices can compensate for unsustainable ones. “Eco-guilt” from imbalance in the moral environmental account may promote pro-environmental acts, but also acts that are seemingly pro-environmental but in reality more harmful than doing nothing at all. Strategies for handling problems caused by this cognitive insufficiency are discussed.
