Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Gilligan proposed that males focus on justice and rights in their moral reasoning, whereas females are concerned with the issue of care and the well-being of others. Therefore, option B - justice and showing care - is the best answer. Option A, responsibility and justice, is partially correct in terms of males' moral reasoning but does not reflect female moral reasoning. Option C, avoiding harm and avoiding blame, may be a part of moral reasoning, but it does not fully capture the essence of the question. Option D, punishments and rewards, is not related to moral reasoning, but rather to consequences of actions.
