The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
- Sentence 1: "Impartiality and objectivity are fiendishly difficult concepts that can cause all sorts of injustices even if transparently implemented." This sentence sets up a general statement about the challenges of impartiality and objectivity.
- Sentence 3: "Twitter’s website says that 'tweets you are likely to care about most will show up first in your timeline…based on accounts you interact with most, tweets you engage with, and much more.'" This sentence introduces Twitter's algorithm, which is relevant to the discussion of transparency and objectivity.
- Sentence 2: "It encourages us into bubbles of people we know and like, while blinding us to different perspectives, but the deeper problem of 'transparency' lies in the words '…and much more'." This sentence logically follows Sentence 3 as it critiques the algorithm mentioned.
- Sentence 4: "We are only told some of the basic principles, and we can’t see the algorithm itself, making it hard for citizens to analyse the system sensibly or fairly or be convinced of its impartiality and objectivity." This sentence concludes the paragraph by discussing the limitations in transparency and their impact on impartiality and objectivity.
