D

Answer: C . The author explains how through parent experiences, standards based grading made information unclear.
Explanation: Based off of the text it seems like the author is explaining through parent experiences how the standard based grading made information unclear. In paragraphs 1 the author starts to go into this by stating, "The report cards in Maryland's biggest school system left parents puzzled. They showed a wide range of elementary school subjects, but the same grade popped up again and again, the perplexing letter 'P' for proficient."(Paragraph 1) Then in paragraph 3 and 4 she explains what she means by this with parent experiences with the confusing report cards, "One mother from Montgomery county counted 80 of them on a fourth-quarter report card with a total of 84 grades. A father said that his children stopped paying attention to the grading reports all together, so unvaried was the marks that filled them"(Paragraph 3) and, "The all-inclusive P," said Cynthia Simson, a Derwood parent and longtime PTA leader who advocated for change." (Paragraph 4).

Explanation:
Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
But her husband was on his hands and knees groping wildly on the floor in search of the paw. If he could only find it before the thing outside got in. A perfect fusillade of knocks reverberated through the house, and he heard the scraping of a chair as his wife put it down in the passage against the door. He heard the creaking of the bolt as it came slowly back, and at the same moment he found the monkey's paw, and frantically breathed his third and last wish.
The knocking ceased suddenly, although the echoes of it were still in the house. He heard the chair drawn back, and the door opened. A cold wind rushed up the staircase, and a long loud wail of disappointment and misery from his wife gave him courage to run down to her side, and then to the gate beyond. The street lamp flickering opposite shone on a quiet and deserted road.
How does Mrs. White’s reaction compare to that of Mr. White after the third wish has been granted?
A She is heartbroken, and he is relieved.
B She is sad, and he is angry.
C She is anxious, and he is remorseful.
D She is terrified, and he is expectant.

To Kill a Mockingbird
Lee tries to recreate the ways that young kids interact with one another. Does she succeed?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
she tries but she fails
Lee tries to recreate the ways that young kids interact with one another.as she did not succeed and got failed.
To Kill a Mockingbird recounts the account of the youthful storyteller's section from honesty to encounter when her dad defies the bigoted equity arrangement of the provincial, Depression-period South.
To Kill a Mockingbird isn't self-portraying, there are similitudes between the novel and Lee's life. The book is set in Maycomb, Alabama, the anecdotal name for Monroeville, where Lee grew up. Like the primary person Scout, Lee was a spitfire who was awkward with conventional womanliness.
A frightful picture of race and class, honesty and unfairness, bad faith and gallantry, custom and change in the Deep South , Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird stays as significant today as it was upon its underlying distribution in 1960, during the fierce long stretches of the Civil Rights development.

From what book is this? I think I know but I am not sure.
I think you give a strong point. Toward the end though you seem to repeat what you said in the beginning. You should probably try to backup your statement as well. Make sure to have a strong claim and reasoning and maybe add some Evidence. I like how you used the dynamic characters and tool them into comparison as well. Hope this helps :)
