Answer: The correct answer is choice C.

Explanation: Software developers prefer to use high-level language to author programs because it uses a more English-like syntax.

The main advantage of high-level languages over low-level languages is that they are easier to read, write, and maintain. After being written, programs in a high-level language must be translated into machine language by a compiler or interpreter.
