14) which detail is irrelevant and could be deleted from the passage? a) have you noticed a change in the world around you recently? b) people who have ear buds in their ears simply cannot hear danger approaching. c) ear buds are probably doing serious physical damage to their inner eardrums. d) beyond just being distracting and dangerous, ear buds are detrimental and damaging to society as a whole.

A) Have you noticed a change in the world around you recently.

Explanation:

The passage discusses and elaborates on the disastrous impacts of earbuds and the serious damage that it does to the eardrums. All the other three claims appropriate concerning this problem and its effects and the one that seems irrelevant is the first one as it has no affiliation to the topic. It interrogates a societal change which could be anything and thus, this could be deleted and would not affect the meaning at all. The other options are claiming the ill-effects of earbuds and the people enjoying its use are not realizing the physical and social damage it is leading to. Thus, option A is irrelevant to the context and that is the answer.

covert: hidden or secret

candid: truthful and straightforward

what i get from these phrases is covert means undercover or underground and that's where the flower is in april. on the other hand, may is the month where flowers start to bloom and thats the reason why candid is being used as a word to describe the blossoming period of a flower.

hope this answer you.
