    The fact that deconstructionists prefer to describe their activities as deconstruction ratherthan criticism is also revealing. Criticism and criticderive from the Greek kritikos, "skillful in judging,decisive." Deconstruction, on the other hand, has . no overtones of skill or wisdom; Hi I am not an instructor but I will try to help. Please refer to the line reference above. It states that criticism and critics derive from the Greek Kritikos, which means skillful in judging and decisive. It also accedes that deconstruction, by contrast, has no such overtones (implications or connotations) of skill or wisdom. Since deconstruction is set up as a contrast to criticism, and deconstruction has no skill nor wisdom, this implies that criticism has skill and wisdom. A synonym for wisdom is insight. This directly matches correct answer B). I hope that I explained it correctly. Please feel free to correct me. Thank you.
