In "The Story-Teller," why does the children's aunt offer to tell the children a story?

The children's aunt offers to tell them a story because:

A. She wants to entertain the children to keep them quiet.

Explanation:

n the short story "The Story-Teller" by Saki, an aunt is onboard a train with her two nieces and a nephew. In the same carriage is an "unsympathetic" bachelor - or at least, that is how the aunt sees him. The children are restless, constantly asking questions, moving around, smacking the cushions of the seats, and even reciting poems. When the bachelor seems to be getting angry, the aunt decides to entertain the children with a story, as a way to keep them quiet and prevent the bachelor from complaining. However, her story is filled with flaws. Even its attempt to teach the children a lesson about being good and well-behaved fails. The bachelor than intervenes and ends up telling them a much better story.

the support that the author, uses in the article facing our fears is a): a definition of the part of the brain called the amygdala.

he takes neuroscientist joseph ledoux's words by telling that by falling to distinguish between evolutionary old systems located in the amygdala and newer systems, centered in the prefrontal cortex, doctors have conflated non conscious threat circuits in the brain with circuits that underlie the conscious experience of fear. that, the author says, "leads ledoux to the jarring conclusion that the amygdala, a decades-old centerpiece of the brain's fear circuit, does not underlie the conscious feeling of fear".

despite this, the author points out in the article that that is a controversial notion and that evidence, in animal and humans, supports the idea that core emotions can exist outside of conscious awareness.
