Question

the word philanthropy combines the prefix phil- with the root -anthropy. phil- comes from the greek philos, meaning \loving.\ -anthropy comes from the greek anthrôpos, meaning \humanity.\ what is philanthropy?
1 good deeds done to benefit other people
2 acts of kindness that reflect human wisdom
3 caring for and serving oneself before others

Explanation:

The word "philanthropy" has "phil -" (meaning "loving") and "-anthropy" (meaning "humanity"). So it relates to loving humanity, which matches "good deeds done to benefit other people". Option 2 mentions "human wisdom" (not related to the roots), and option 3 is self - serving (opposite of loving humanity).

Answer:

1. good deeds done to benefit other people
