Answer

Brief Explanations:

To determine which quotations provide specific evidence for the claim (social media's role in Arab uprisings), we analyze each option:

  1. The first option is a general statement, not specific evidence.
  2. The second option ("Networks formed online...") gives specific details about organizing activists in Egypt.
  3. The third option ("Civil society leaders...") provides specific evidence from leaders about the role of social media.
  4. The fourth option ("Additionally, digital media...") gives specific details about using digital media for speech and civic engagement.
  5. The fifth option is about emerging research, not direct evidence of the role.

So the three options with specific evidence are the second, third, and fourth.

Answer:

B. "Networks formed online were crucial in organizing a core group of activists, specifically in Egypt." C. "Civil society leaders in Arab countries emphasized the role of 'the internet, mobile phones, and social media' in the protests." D. "Additionally, digital media has been used by Arabs to exercise freedom of speech and as a space for civic engagement."
