Answer:

  • <u><em>B) Relevant analogies usually help people solve problems, but people often do not spontaneously think of relevant analogies.</em></u>

Explanation:

An <em>analogy</em> is a relationship that makes two situations similar in a way; or may be not similar but that you can compare.

For sure anologies are a great aid in problem-solving. Sometimes a problem may seem complex, difficult to understand and to think about a solution, but, it migh be that the situation could be compared with other situation for which the solution is easier. Once you find the solution to the easier problem you reason in a similar way to give the solution to the original problem.

On the other side, the analogies may be difficult to find, and in most cases it is necessary to obtain tips, clues, or hints, that permit to make the connection between the two problems that in principle seem not connected. After finding the connection,  the more evident solution to the less complex problem can be applied to the more complex problem.

Citing data in the graphs, explain how media and communications technology can be used to preserve indigenous languages in the A
AlexFokin [52]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Mass media and communications technology can be used to preserve indigenous languages in the Americas in different ways.

According to the<em> graphics</em> attached, we can see that in the Americas, 17% of the languages are lost and 16% are endangered.

This data is critical and concerns not only scholars or historians, but it has to worry all the citizens because part of our history can be erased if indigenous languages disappear.

Mass media can be used to help solve this issue because modern technology has no frontiers. If governments invest in proper technological infrastructure to take modern communications systems to the tribes or far away places where many tribes inhabit, this could be a direct way to rescue those endangered languages. This possibility shows that there are options available. The use of the internet is a great resource, proving that no matter the distance, every member of a society or indigenous tribe can be connected and could take classes on the internet, or listening to news broadcasting systems in their former language, as well as reading publications in their languages.
