In a literary text, the proper use of 'porqués' is essential for coherence and cohesion. Considering the following excerpt from a contemporary novel in Spanish, identify the 'porqué' that, in the given context, expresses a specific cause or reason. Analyze the use of 'porqués' in the text to determine which one justifies a clear action within the narrative, thus contributing to the understanding of the characters and their motivations.
a.
The 'por qué' that introduces a causal explanation: 'I couldn't help it because of the pressure of the moment.'
b.
The 'por qué' that expresses a specific cause or reason within the fragment is: 'because he was very scared of what could happen to him if he didn't make a quick decision'. This 'porqué' justifies the action taken by the character and reveals his motivation to act in that way in the context of the narrative.

The 'por qué' that expresses a general justification: 'I did it because I felt that way at the moment.'

In the Portuguese language, words are composed of syllables, which are sound units formed by vowels, alone or accompanied by consonants. The correct separation of syllables is essential for understanding spelling and reading. Considering the word 'combustível', which is of utmost importance in studies on the environment and sustainability, identify how many syllables are in this word and justify the syllable division according to the grammatical rules. Relate the concept of syllable to the importance of environmental preservation that the conscious use of fuels exemplifies.

Excerpt: "I know nothing about this sea, I don't know its ancient name. The map only describes features in almost a dream, the sheet in green and white. I don't know if there's a bird or wind. My compass tears the paper, points to the north close to my disoriented hand. I search in the leaf's veins for some compass." - Manoel de Barros, from the book The Book About Nothing. Based on the excerpt from the book "The Book About Nothing" by Manoel de Barros, demonstrate your knowledge of the linguistic structure, considering the following requests: a) Identify the vowel clusters, consonant clusters, and digraphs present in the quoted text and classify them. b) Perform the syllable division of the words "feições", "desnorteada", and "bússola".
