D.
annoyance with a consumerist society
Answer:
C. Anger about gender stereotyping.
Explanation:
Marge Piercy's "Barbie Doll" focuses on the predicament of a 'girl-child' and exemplifies a feminist tone. She critics the cultural stereotype of a perfect woman. She displays her anguish by suggesting the body image and patterns of behavior enforced by society as fatal. These deadly consequences include the girls killing themselves when they fail to meet the extensive unreasonable standards set up by society. She argues that these norms mistreat the psyche of the woman and they prefer dying over attaining the perfect body. Thus, the poem is a commentary against gender stereotyping.

C. To define the purpose and limits of a Big Year
Explanation:
Since this article isn't separated into clear paragraphs, I will use the article in the attachment to answer this.
Third paragraps is the one starting with "A "Big Year" is a year..." and ending with "...off the Canadian coast."
Basic pieces of information this paragraph provides are brief introduction to what "Big Year" actually is and roughly explained limits of the region where this contest takes place in North America.
Having this in mind, the best fitting answer would be C.
Just recently a Japanese film crew managed to film a giant squid swimming in its natural habitat. They managed to lure it to their cameras with bait after many hours of waiting and searching two thousand feet below the surface of the Pacific Ocean.
The giant squid is truly a giant. It can grow up to 50 feet in length, with tentacles making up most of this great length. For comparison, 50 feet is about as long as most school buses. Imagine meeting something the size of your school bus in the deep dark ocean and you might get an idea what it is like to meet a squid. Over the centuries, many squid specimens have been found, but it's hard to get an idea of how the squid lives because it typically cruises in the deepest depths of the ocean. We know that the giant squid's main predator is the sperm whale. We know this because bits of giant squid have been found in the stomachs of sperm whales. We also know they feed on deep-sea fish and other squid. We know this because of all the giant squid that have washed ashore.
The giant squid lives in all of the world's oceans—though few are found in the tropics or the Arctic waters. As a result, stories of giant squid were told among sailors for hundreds of years. These sightings must have been frightening and may be the source for the legend of the Kraken—a sea monster reputed to be as large as an island—capable of eating an entire ship.
Which sentence most correctly explains the main idea of the entire passage?
Because few people had ever seen it, the giant squid is one of the great sea-monster mysteries of the deep.
Because it eats so many fish, both of its own size and larger, the giant squid has earned its reputation as a mysterious monster of the deep sea.
Because it is likely the cause of so many shipwrecks, the giant squid has earned a reputation as a school-bus-sized hazard of the deep sea.
Because it is a favorite food of sperm whales, the giant squid spends most of its time in the deepest ocean and is a mystery to humans.
Answer: The correct answer is: Because few people had ever seen it, the giant squid is one of the great seamonster mysteries of the deep.
Explanation:
The main idea of this article is that the giant squid is a mystery beacuse it lives in the deep sea and, for that reason, few people saw it. There's a sentence that summarizes this idea: "...it's hard to get an idea of how the squid lives because it typically cruises in the deepest depths of the ocean." The article provides some facts about it: what they eat, which animal eats them, its lenght. Still, this squid remains a mystery.
