Question

PART B: Which TWO details from the text best support the answer to Part A?

Answer 1

Answer: B and D

Option B states that empathy makes you aware of people's suffering, but might not lead you to act on it in a moral way. This supports the answer to part A which states that empathy encourages caring feelings, but does not necessarily drive people to action.

Option D argues that empathy has become a way to feel sadness or other similar emotions, but without having to question our inability to act upon them. This is also consistent with the answer to part A, which states empathy does not necessarily lead to action.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answers is letter B and D

Explanation:

The letter B says that empathy makes you aware of the suffering of other people. This reinforces the response of part A that empathy generates a sense of care. In addition, the letter B says that this awareness of suffering, does not cause you to take moral or immoral actions, which reinforces the response of part A that says that, alone empathy does not lead people to act according to their feelings .

The letter D talks about the feelings that empathy generates, without requiring you to take action on those feelings, and this also reinforces the response from Part A that empathy alone does not lead people to act according to their feelings.
