Question

1. part b: which of the following quotes best supports the answer to part a?

a. \...many people are unaware that being loved or especially valued makes them feel angry and withholding\ (paragraph 2)
b. \...the experience of being chosen and especially valued is exciting and can bring happiness and fulfillment...\ (paragraph 5)
c. \...they attempt to recreate the world they lived in as children to maintain psychological equilibrium.\ (paragraph 19)
d. \the end result is antithetical to maintaining happy and satisfying relationships.\ (paragraph 19)

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to assume the answer to Part A (not provided here, but typically for such questions, if Part A was about a negative impact of certain relationships or a problematic behavior, but since we need to pick the quote that supports, let's analyze each:

• Option A talks about people feeling angry when loved/valued – if Part A was about negative reactions, this could support. But wait, maybe Part A was about recreating childhood worlds for equilibrium (Option C's quote is about that). Wait, no, the question is which quote supports Part A's answer. Since we don't have Part A, but assuming a common scenario (like Part A was about people recreating childhood worlds for psychological equilibrium), then Option C's quote directly states they attempt to recreate childhood world for equilibrium, which would support that answer. Alternatively, if Part A was about negative outcomes, D. But since we need to choose, and given the options, if Part A was about maintaining psychological equilibrium via recreating childhood, then C is the support.

Answer:

C. "...they attempt to recreate the world they lived in as children to maintain psychological equilibrium." (Paragraph 19)
