Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

We all seek to explain the world, we seek to find reasons for events that happen to us and
around us. In other words, we look to attribute occurrences to some cause. If we attribute
all of our failures to internal, stable, and global causes, the stage is set for the development
of depression. If all that is negative in your life is your fault and it can't be changed, what
is there to be happy about? Addressing such irrational thinking is a likely task for a
cognitive therapist.
