Which one of the following is not the same of a major american regional dialect ? western general america new england southern

General America should be your answer

I've never heard of anybody speak about or speak "General America" dialect.

There are Western dialect (found generally in the Western Coast from California to Washington state).

There are New England dialect (generally found in North-Eastern US (Maine, etc) where the original colonies were at).

There are Southern dialect (found towards the southern side of the US stretching from Texas to Georgia (may include some other states, generally the states that were part of the Confederacy).

General America. Western is the typical cowboy sound, New England says "Chowda", and Southern is the typical drawl.

two factors or characteristics of a chapter that might make it difficult to read would be words i don't understand, or if i don't fully understand what's going on in the chapter. strategies i can use to get through the difficult material would be a dictionary, and re-reading previous chapters to get a better grasp of what the author is trying to say.
