The correct answer to this open question is the following.
First, we are talking about the story "Everyday Use," written by African American writer Alice Walker in 1973. This story is included in the collection called "In Love and Trouble."
The characterization of the speaker could be the following. She is a strong character uneducated woman that works hard to maintain the family. She tells the story from her perspective, so she is not objective. The name of the character is simply "Mama."
Where does she refrain from making judgments? For instance, when her daughter asks her if she looks good. Mama evades the question asked by her daughter but later she -as the narrator- describes the way her daughter looks.
Where does she present less than the full truth? For example, when she refers to Wangero, the other daughter. She hides some truths and then later, she expresses what she really thinks about her daughter and how she does not agree with her decisions.
Do these examples of reticence undercut her reliability? No, she simply tells the story from her particular point of view.
Answer: I would use a dictionary, but that wasn’t a choice; She should reread the beginning and ending of the story to see if her prediction was correct.
Explanation: IF she reread only the sentence with the unknown word to see if her guess makes sense, she could still err, but reading before and after should give a better idea if it was correct.

Answer:
A.
Explanation:
'Why Afghanistan’s ‘Underground Girls’ Skirt Tradition to Live as Boys' is an interview taken by NPR of Jenny Nordberg, who wrote about <em>bacha posh</em> in Afghanistan. The central idea presented in the text is that by making girls dressed as boys, girls and women in Afghanistan are more oppressed and controlled.
The statement that best supports this central idea is statement from paragraph 1, <em>"They can’t leave the house alone; they’re not educated; and they’re dressed in clothes that conceal them." </em>By concealing the true identity of girls in childhood, the society of Afghanistan tend to control them.
Therefore, option A is correct.
