Respuesta :

Answer:

1. Normative

2. Positive

3. Normative

4. Normative

Explanation:

A certain situation is considered as 'normative'  if it is expected to happen by the large majority of people in a certain type of society. It will be considered as 'positive' if it is not expected by most people but predicted to have a positive improvement to the society.

From the sample above, option 2 is the only positive one because not all citizens might get on board for letting the criminals off the execution.
