a. \were surrounded by visual cues nudging us to buy this or prodding us to do that, and most of the time we have no idea its even happening.\ (paragraph 2)
b. \we tend to add thoughts and emotions to objects in a similar way to how we would experience things ourselves,\ (paragraph 7)
c. \we rely on visual cues to unconsciously figure out how we feel about something, and it turns out some people just look more trustworthy than others.\ (paragraph 8)
d. \the best way to get you to buy something is to make you believe you dont have to buy it\

Explanation:

Without the full - text and knowledge of the author's point of view, we can analyze each option. Option A highlights the prevalence of visual cues influencing us unconsciously. Option B focuses on our tendency to anthropomorphize objects. Option C emphasizes how visual cues affect our perception of trustworthiness. Option D is about a marketing strategy. If the author's point is about the power of visual cues in influencing our behavior and decisions unconsciously, Option A is the most relevant as it directly states that we are surrounded by visual cues nudging us without our awareness.

Answer:

A. "We're surrounded by visual cues nudging us to buy this or prodding us to do that, and most of the time we have no idea it's even happening." (Paragraph 2)
