They all are note takings from an excel file that I have synthesize by myself (in other word, from my experience). I printed screen to convert to Image files, then uploading to the forum.

1.D
as attention or perceptions systematically is being compared not children and adult so 'do' is required

2.C
as 'becoming the tenth most intense ' most intense is already there so we need to emphasize second part...it was biggest since....so the most intense is required...
D is poor than C
SO C
