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.

Something is plagiarism if one takes material from another source and uses it without pointing toward that source, thus making it appear that it is originally written.
1. No, this is not plagiarism since she herself is the original writer, thus she is not stealing content from anybody else.<span>
2. According to Casey Berry of Sciences Ltd., "Only 6% of students wash their hands after class." This first choice is not plagiarism, since the student has cited the researcher Casey Berry, and has enclosed the directly copied statement in quotation marks. In contrast, the second choice mentions "a recent study" without any direct mention of who did the study, and it copies the conclusion verbatim without using quotation marks.
3. This is not plagiarism, since she places a hyperlink to the source, thus acknowledging that what she has written is not her own original material. However, this is considered bad practice, to simply link to a source without describing what it has done or which parts specifically you have taken from it. You would not probably be sued in court for plagiarism, but it is still advisable to describe what the source has done.
4. No, this is not plagiarism. He has used quotation marks for direct quotes. The paraphrased information does not need quotation marks. Hyperlinks and attributions have been provided for each, so there are no issues with this kind of writing.
5. Yes, this is plagiarism. The BlogMutt writer got information from another post (which may or may not have been original material, we do not know), and did not attribute that post. Furthermore, this write-up is for a customer, not merely for discussion in forums, so pretending that the information on the post is his own is not only plagiarism, but it is also business dishonesty as he is stealing someone's work and selling it to a customer as his own.</span>
I believe the correct answer is B. With the reading of the written stage directions.
It isn't enough to just change the tone or the volume of the characters' voices, as this excerpt has a lot of important "silent" things happening. The stage directions are not mere instructions as to what the actors should do, but also a kind of an interpretation of their actions. That is why it is important that the listener hears those details as well.
