This question is missing the excerpt and the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Read the following story excerpt and answer the question that follows: "Come on James!" Nick called him from the street. "Let's get to the court. The guys are waiting." James looked down at his list of assignments on the computer. "Nick, I can't go today," he yelled regretfully out his window. "I am behind on my work. You are, too! You should come over and we can study together." No response from Nick. James sighed and opened his website. A short time later he heard a loud knock at the door. It was Nick. "You were right. Let's finish up and then go shoot hoops."
Which line of dialogue impacted Nick and changed direction of the story?
A. Nick called him from the street. "Let's get to the court."
B. "Nick, I can't go today," he yelled out his window.
C. "Come on James!" Nick called him from the street.
D. "You are, too! You should come over and we can study together."
Answer:
The line that impacted Nick and changed the direction of the story is:
D. "You are, too! You should come over and we can study together."
Explanation:
Notice that, at the beginning of the story, Nick is quite unconcerned about his assignments. It is only when James reminds him that he is also behind that Nick pauses. He then realizes James is right, and changes his mind about going to the court to meet the others. He chooses to study with James instead. The line James says that helps Nick change his mind and the direction of the story is: D. "You are, too! You should come over and we can study together."
One the important things is to be open-minded. Moving around a new environment will need a person's openness to different possibilities. As much as possible, you have to be ready embracing it.
Another is to be a good team player. Most of the time, you will not be working alone. If you know how to be with other people, then it's easy for you to move around and mingle.
Lastly is be competitive within yourself. Try to challenge yourself to do more and always do better things. Make each minute a habit of doing work diligently.
Some people are saying it's C-Deeply personal. Although, to be honest, ALL literature is A because it depends on how you interpret it. That's why we have literature classes and 10 people can write 10 different opinions on what the literature is saying. Since contemporary simply means the writing written after WWII era, it can range so much, that saying it's deeply personal, in my opinion, is too broad. So I would say A, unless you have something in your reading/lessons that say otherwise, or gives a specific answer.
