Answer 1

1. Uber considers its drivers as its partners and hence b is the correct answer.

2. The international court of justice derives its authority from the United Nations charter and hence b is the correct answer.

3. Treaties already signed implies that the delay is not due to the countries' conflict and also not that the ratification is delayed as it has already been signed. Now note that while signing the treaties, the countries tend to consider the national law of the country and only sign when they believe that the new treaty would not impact their own country adversely. Hence this delay is due to the complexities and the formalization of the implementation procedures. Hence d is the correct answer.

4. Local authorities tend to resist Uber because they are concerned for the securities of the general public and hence b is the correct answer.
