Explanation:

The question asks for explicit examples of starvation. Explicit examples directly mention lack of food or hunger as the cause of death/misery. The first option states "weakened from lack of food"; the second involves a beggar dying in misery (context of starvation); the third uses "hunger-starved"; the fourth says "for want of food and means"; the fifth (man leaving for food) is about seeking food but not an explicit example of starvation itself. However, based on the visible options, the first four plus the third are explicit.

Answer:

A. A miller's daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack of food.
B. A beggar boy from the Scottish Borders is found writhing in agony in the road and dies soon afterward "in great misery."
C. Another "poor, hunger-starved beggar boy" is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies.
D. A four-year-old local boy dies "for want of food and means," as does his mother.
(Note: The fifth visible option about the man leaving home is about seeking food, not explicit starvation. Assuming the fifth correct option is implied from the excerpt, but based on visible choices, the first four are explicit examples.)
