Answer:
The two ideas from the setting that influence the way characters act in this passage are:
B. the idea that people should not argue in public
E. the custom of saving women and children first
Explanation:
"A Night to Remember" is a novel by Walter Lord which gives an account of the disastrous first trip of the Titanic. As we know, the ship began its journey toward America but ended up sinking after a tragic collision with an iceberg in 1912.
The fact that the story is set in 1912 is of great importance to understand how and why the characters behave in certain ways. Society at the beginning of the 20th century lived under different, more strict, social rules than it does now. People would, for instance, avoid any sort of disagreement in public, since it was frowned upon. That is represented in the first fragment: "Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Meyer of New York felt so self-conscious arguing about it in public that they went down to their cabin."
It is also important to understand that, in sinking ships, it is a rule to save children and women first. The story being set on a ship explains the second fragment: "When they say ‘Women and children to the boats,’ you must go when your turn comes. I'll stay here with Jack Thayer. We’ll be all right.”
I would start it off on what you will be talking about. For example, you could begin with what books and ebooks are both used for.
In the first body paragraph, you explain one reason why you believe ebooks are more useful. In the second paragraph, explain why other people may disagree, and then emphasize on why you think differently.
In a few more paragraphs, list more reasons that support your point of view and do your best to persuade the audience to agree with you. Hope this helps!

Dear Editor.
I am writing this letter to you in order to inform you about a great ambitious advance that we are witnessing in Kerala and I believe that this can spark your interest in this case and in cases involving environmental and ecological issues as a whole.
I believe that you have already had access to data or information that reveal the problem of pollution on our planet and how it will affect not only our lives, but the lives of the next generations. To minimize these problems, we must all seek to limit the pollution that we ourselves cause, but also to charge our governmental guidelines and public policies that promote the reduction of population, industries and agriculture.
In Kerala, we managed to get the attention of the government and demand an effective position on pollution and after many discussions we managed to get the government to authorize the general ban on disposable plastic, which will drastically modify our state's waste generation and decrease the pollution that these wastes can cause.
We know that this was a great victory for the environmental sector and we are very happy, but not satisfied, since we would like other states to adopt this ban in their territories. For that, we would need the full disclosure of this event and its importance for our world and our life.
I hope I can count on your participation and dissemination.
Kind regards,
Renjit Goo.
Answer:
b. His tolerance of racial and religious differences.
Explanation:
Roger Williams was a theologian, author and Puritan minister who staunchly support the issues relating to freedom of religion. He also advocated for the separation of the state and church, fair dealing of cases regarding American Indians and was himself one of the very first abolitionists.
Roger Williams established the Providence Plantations, later known as the Colony of Rhode Island. He also founded the first Baptist Church in America in 1638. He had migrated to America for he felt that the Church of England from which all power lies, is not a just way of governing any nation. So, he started advocating for the wrongs in the world, especially about the separation of the powers and duties of the church and the state and the statuses of American Indians and the Blacks/ slaves in America.
