This question is missing the answer options. I have found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the passage from Elizabethan Women.

Gold-paneled ballrooms with crystal chandeliers. Dashing knights and handsome lords bowing at the knees of elegant ladies. And the loveliest part of all? The ladies themselves, bedecked in ornate gowns, drinking from jeweled goblets before gracing the gentlemen with dances.

Now read the passage from a paper on time travel.  

Any time traveler must consider visiting Elizabethan England. There are beautiful castles, gorgeous outfits to wear, and decadent food to eat. The wonders abound!

The most accurate comparison of the two texts is that both  

A. tell the reader interesting stories about Elizabethan England.

B. amuse the reader with funny descriptions of Elizabethan England.

C. persuade the reader of the delights of Elizabethan England.

D. lecture the reader on the importance of Elizabethan England.

The most accurate comparison of the two texts is that both

C. persuade the reader of the delights of Elizabethan England.

Explanation:

Even though they do it in different manners, both texts persuade readers of the delights of Elizabethan England. The first one is more graphic, describing vivid images that can help readers truly visualize what it was like to live at the time and place. The second one is more straightforward, stating instead of describing. However, both tell readers that Elizabethan England had lots of fun and beautiful things to do and see. Thus, letter C is the best option.

in ray bradbury's short story "a sound of thunder", mr. eckels's fearfulness leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.

in the story, mr. eckels, who is a hunter, hires a time travel company to travel to the age of dinosaurs. although he is excited for the hunting expedition at the beginning, when they reach there and mr. eckels sees the tyrannosaurus, he feels frightened. as he is afraid of the tyrannosaurus, he steps off the path although he has been warned not to do it. by stepping off the path, the entire course of the future is affected: mr. eckart alters the future by stepping on a butterfly, which causes a new man to be elected president in the future. in that way, it is mr. eckart's fearfulness what triggers 'the butterfly effect' and what leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.
