Answer:
Joyce is most likely to be motivated by her love/belonging needs.
Explanation:
According to psychologist Abraham Maslow, people are motivated by their needs. Those needs have a certain hierarchy, the most basic (even primitive) ones being fulfilled before the most developed ones. They follow the sequence below:
1. physiological;
2. safety;
3. love/belonging;
4. esteem;
5. self-actualization.
Therefore, only when our physiological needs are satisfied (breathing, eating, drinking water, etc.) is that we are driven by our need for safety. <u>When both, our physiological needs and safety needs, are met, we are motivated by our love/belonging needs. That is the current need that motivates Joyce, since the previous two have been met.</u> Once she feels loved (by family/friends), once she has a sense of belonging, she will be motivated by her needs of esteem, and so on.

Answer:
B. Because viewers do not doubt the reality of what they see on TV
Explanation:
Postman then cites French literary theorist Roland Barthes, arguing that “television has achieved the status of ‘myth’”. What does “myth” mean to Barthes? As Postman explains: “a myth is a way of thinking so deeply embedded in our consciousness that it is invisible”. Here we might pause and review our discussion on semiotics, recalling Levi-Strauss as well as de Saussure.
Myth is language. Images are a type of language. Consequently, when we see a representation of Rosie the Riveter, what comes to mind are a number of ideas, including everything from American determination as reflected by its citizens during World War II to the ideals and concepts espoused by feminist theory. If, as Postman states, television is myth, then what he is arguing for is the idea that television by its very nature and by what it is capable of conveys a complex series of ideas that is already deeply embedded within our subconscious. Or, as Postman more succinctly puts it: We rarely talk about television, only about what is on television—that is, about its content”.
