Part B: Which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to Part A?

If you don't know how to fix it, please stop breaking it!.
Here, you may be delegates of your governments, business people, organisers, reporters or politicians—but really you are mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles—and all of you are somebody's child.
