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.

Alja [10]

Answer:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

Explanation:

I’m not happy at all

I’ll pay it

What makes both of them wrong is the fact that they were both abbreviated. In a formal letter, we are supposed to keep everything whatsoever we write formal, and as such, "I'm", in place of "I am" and "I'll" in place of "I will" is quite wrong for a formal letter, since the former is an informal way of writing the later.

Changing both context however, to "I am not happy at all", and "I will pay it" makes it fit into the requirements for a formal letter.
