(D) Consider the function $f(x) = e^x - (1 + x)$.For $x > 0$,$f'(x) = e^x - 1 > 0$,so $f(x)$ is strictly increasing.Since $f(0) = 0$,it follows that $e^x > 1 + x$ for all $x > 0$. Thus,option $C$ is true.Consider $g(x) = x - \log(1 + x)$.For $x > 0$,$g'(x) = 1 - \frac{1}{1 + x} = \frac{x}{1 + x} > 0$,so $g(x)$ is strictly increasing.Since $g(0) = 0$,it follows that $x > \log(1 + x)$ for all $x > 0$. Thus,option $A$ is true.Consider $h(x) = \log(1 + x) - \frac{x}{1 + x}$.For $x > 0$,$h'(x) = \frac{1}{1 + x} - \frac{(1 + x) - x}{(1 + x)^2} = \frac{1}{1 + x} - \frac{1}{(1 + x)^2} = \frac{x}{(1 + x)^2} > 0$.Since $h(0) = 0$,it follows that $\log(1 + x) > \frac{x}{1 + x}$ for all $x > 0$. Thus,option $B$ is true.Finally,for $x > 0$,$e^x > 1 + x > 1$. However,$1 - x  0$. Therefore,$e^x  0$.
