## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the sentence in which the word "little" is used in the same way as in the sentence "even if some of them seem a little unusual". In this sentence, "little" is used to describe something that is not significant or is of a small degree.## Step 2Let's analyze each option:### Option A: "The student was holding a little piece of paper."In this sentence, "little" is used to describe the size of the piece of paper, which is small.### Option B: "Little by little the students learned how to read."In this sentence, "little" is used to describe the gradual process of learning, which is not the same as the usage in the original sentence.### Option C: "The little old teacher walked into the classroom."In this sentence, "little" is used to describe the teacher's age, which is not the same as the usage in the original sentence.### Option D: "The desk used by the student was somehow little."In this sentence, "little" is used to describe the size of the desk, which is small.### Option E: "The school building was a little damaged by the fire."In this sentence, "little" is used to describe the extent of the damage, which is not significant.## Step 3Based on the analysis, options A and D use "little" to describe something small or of a small degree, which is the same as the usage in the original sentence.
