Question

What kind of information do we usually access ?

• A. That supports our existing views.
• B. That supports military actions
• C. That supports the government
• D. That supports the media

Hint:

Read the end of the first paragraph.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understand the question.
The question asks what kind of information people usually look for.

Step 2: Recall what the passage says.
At the end of the first paragraph the passage says some evidence shows that we mostly access information that supports our existing views of the world.

Step 3: Check option 1, That supports our existing views..
The passage says we mostly access information that supports our existing views. This is right. So option 1 is right.

Step 4: Check option 2, That supports military actions.
Military actions come up in the second paragraph as a topic people read about, not as the kind of information they prefer. So option 2 is wrong.

Step 5: Check option 3, That supports the government.
Support for the government is not stated. Governments are discussed as limiting access. So option 3 is wrong.

Step 6: Check option 4, That supports the media.
Support for the media is not stated anywhere. So option 4 is wrong.

Final Answer:
People mostly access information that supports what they already believe, so option 1 is correct. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 1}} \]
