Cold War at Its Height

Question 10 • WA-World History B - Aberdeen

Which excerpt from this passage indicates bias?

Answer
A
“The armies of South Korea fought bravely to defend their liberties.”
B
“On June 25, 1950, the north began its invasion of the south.”
C
“This action moved the United Nations Security Council to declare the invasion . . . illegal.”
D
“A UN army . . . joined the South Korean forces in an effort to repel the invasion.”

Explanation

The word “bravely” expresses praise and presents the South Korean armies in a favorable way, so it signals the writer’s viewpoint rather than just stating a fact. The other excerpts mainly describe events or actions without using similarly approving language. Therefore, “The armies of South Korea fought bravely to defend their liberties” indicates bias.
