<span>The answer is D. In Greek mythology, it was often believed that when natural disasters occurred, it was the gods punishing that community. The Greek gods would 'smite' those that acted poorly, often resulting in death or major industry. Some acts that may result in punishment include murder, gluttony, adultery, gambling, to name a few. In ancient Greece, nature was believed to be the gods at work, so A is incorrect as they believed the gods were in control of nature. B and C are also incorrect because they felt if they acted in the correct manner, they could avoid the gods wrath.</span>

Answer:

To remove the "dead-weight phrase" in the sentence: "It has been found that most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make," it can be rewritten as follows:

"Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."

Explanation:

A dead-weight phrase is one that is not helpful in a sentence to convey the intended meaning.  This implies that the meaning can still be picked up without the phrase.  For example, the phrase: "it has been found that" is not necessary in the sentence.  The meaning of the sentence is conveniently conveyed with its omission.  The meaning is not lost if the sentence is rewritten as "Most people consider buying a house the largest purchase they can ever make."

Generally, a dead-weight is an unnecessary burden that can be jettisoned to make a load lighter.  Also an unhelpful person can be considered as a dead-weight.
