English

Answer:

Option C

The ability to have an effect on the behavior, character, or actions of someone else

Explanation:

The word influence has quite a number of meanings which may vary based on the context which it is used.

We can analyse the situation presented in the problem statement "Dara could influence my decision to vote for Joy in the student body election " to find the meaning based on this context.

We understand that the influence used here most likely means that Dara can affect the choice I make for a candidate during the election. If this happens it means that Dara can affect my behaviour, character or action, as regards to taking a decision during the election.

This makes option C the most appropriate answer

I think that the problem Henry has raised is a major ________ for our society today.
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

I agree with you that issue is best; it is a good parallel with problem.  

A problem might be a subject for discussion, but we are not likely to say it is a subject for society.  

It is difficult to see how a problem could be a theme for society. If there is a repeated or underlying subject of discussions we might call it a theme:

If there was an underlying theme it was this: "The problem is we don't have any money". (Source: Seattle Post Intelligencer (blog) - Mar 24, 2010)

​

Points are likely to be assertions, not questions to resolve, which is what problems are. We aren't likely to say "a point for our society today", unless we say what the society is to do with it. A person could say "[The fact that education is necessary for progress] is a point for our society to consider," although there would be better ways to express the idea.
