I believe D would be the most reasonable answer for this question given that it has factual information that well suits a topic sentence.
The answers are:
"Jordyn the jock was not as bad as I thought she would be when I first learned we’d been paired to lead the cabin of eight-year-olds."
"By the second week of camp, I realized I actually liked Mariah a lot more than I’d expected to."
The lines help to develop the theme that people who have little in common can become friends because both caracters admit that they have made previous judgements before getting to know each other. However, after sharing and going through certain circumstances, they realize that they actually like each other.
The mongoose is a small carnivoran animal and it is perceived differently in the Indian and Hawaiian culture. In the Indian culture, the mongoose is praised due to his ability to kill rats, snakes and others pests. It is usually kept as a pet to avoid rats in buildings and houses.
In the Hawaiian culture, the mongoose is hated since this little animal it is devastating birds nests and turtle eggs. If the mongoose continues to spread in this area, it might affect the protection of several native birds and turtles.
