The correct answer is:  [C]:  "healthy".
___________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  The word "but" —which is a coordinating conjunction—functions as "<em><u>t</u></em><u><em>ransition word</em></u> " (in the sentence provided in this very question.).
___________________________________________________
Note the following text (within the sentence provided in this very question):

 "I try to select 'nutritious food choices'.... but sometimes the "[French fries and chocolate fudge cake]" just look so 'delicious' .
___________________________________________________
Note that the word "delicious" is used to describe the "French fries and cakes".  
___________________________________________________
{ This is similar to Choice:  [D]:  "yummy", so we can eliminate "Choice: [D]" .} .
___________________________________________________
Choices:  [A] & [B] do not make much sense.  It would be rare for someone to try to select "boring" food choices or "bland" food choices.  
(Exception:  If someone could not tolerate "hot or spicy foods", then "bland" would make sense.}.  

Furthermore, the words — "boring" and "bland"—are not synonymous with the word — "nutritious" .
_________________________________________________
Also, note the following text within the sentence given:
_________________________________________________ 
"I try to select nutritious food choices in the school cafeteria to help me do well in school ..." 
_________________________________________________
Taking these factors into consideration, along with the answer choices given, 
  
          →  The correct answer is:  [C]:  "healthy" .

50 POINTS!! In at least one hundred words, discuss how many of the same themes in Gordimer’s “1959: What is Apartheid?” are expr
natali 33 [55]

here you are hopefully this helps good luck : )

living in fear creates a prison of one’s own making, Avoiding and withdrawing from what we fear, and to live happily ever after.

In Nadine Gordimer´s "1959: what is Apartheid?"  she quotes "... If you want to know how Africans-black men and women-live in south African, you will get in return for your curiosity an exposition of apartheid in action, for in all of a black man´s life, all his life, rejection by the white man has the last word.

In Athol Fugard´s "Master Harold...and the boys" Hally, one of the characters said "the truth? I seem to be the only one around here who is prepared to face it . We´ve  had the pretty dream, it is time now to wake up and have a good long look at the way things really are".

In both works we can see the level of discrimination and inequality of the Apartheid in South Africa until the 1990´s during Nelson Mandela´s government.

This is another compound complex sentence due to the complexity it has. It contains one dependent clause and two independent clauses.

So the answer is letter D compound complex.

Answer:

Independence benefits you in many broad areas:

It boosts your self-confidence and self-esteem. An increase in self-confidence means that you trust yourself to be competent in the situations you confront, and a boost in self-esteem gives a positive outlook on yourself. Learning independence instills confidence because you believe in the knowledge and capacities you possess to deal with any challenge.

It decreases the burden you place on family, friends, and society. If you are capable of meeting your own needs with the help of technology, you don’t have to depend on others for help. Instead of being a burden, you lighten the load of others.

It turns you into an asset to help other people. It is not bad to need help. Everyone needs it at some point. But, with independence comes the ability to care for yourself and help other people with the knowledge and abilities you have. People learn to trust you as a beneficial resource and look to you for assistance.

It enhances your reputation among friends and colleagues. When you prove that you are independent, other people view you positively as a contributor to society rather than a dependent. Today, reputation determines how far you can go in life. Independence creates a powerful reputation.

It leads to financial freedom because you are skilled and capable. You are able to work and earn wages that allow you to provide for yourself and prepare for the future. Financial uncertainty is frightening, but independence is empowering

Self-Reliance is important for children. Learning to be self-reliant is important to be taught when a child is at a young age so it can develop, as they grow older. Being self-reliant is presented to be the ability to take control over your life, being motivated from within, and being able to take care of oneself. Starting when a child is young it is important to not do everything for them. Gradually hand them tasks to complete making it known that they have the power to be independent. By teaching a child to be independent, as they grow older it will develop personal skills beneficial to their growth.
