Answer: a. Failure is everywhere. It's just that most of the time we'd rather avoid confronting that fact.

Explanation:

Oliver Burkeman believes that the way to true happiness is not to think so positively all the time that we forget about the negative parts of life. He believes the humans do this often even though they can see failure on the horizon, they still go ahead and do things with a hope that things will work out due to that unwarranted positivity.

He believes that failure is everywhere but people just want to avoid that fact because it is not something that they want to admit can happen.

Why is a sensationalized slideshow harmful to the presenter?
lisov135 [29]
Sensationalism is the act of heightening emotion while lowering accuracy. 

Although most of the article will be the same information, the presenter will eventually drop the fact that the article is not entirely accurate. It is also harmful to the presentee, as they are misled into thinking somewhat fake news.

Orlov [11]
<span>The statement about the sentence that is true is B. the sentence needs commas because the participial phrase is nonsessential. Nonessential phrases, unlike essential ones, are not that important in a sentence, and can thus be easily removed without changing the meaning of the sentence drastically. They are always set off from the rest of the sentence by commas, whereas essential phrases don't have commas around them. Here, the nonessential phrase is cradling the baseball in his mitt.</span>
