To heal

Explanation:

The author of the text is very uncomfortable and with a high degree of anxiety at the beginning of the paragraph. He is nervous, feeling bad and feels that he will vomit at any moment. But when he arrives in English class, all these problems go away and he feels comfortable and at home. This is because writing during this class takes away all the bad feelings that come with the author, as if writing cured him of all these ills, his teacher even praises his writing and says he has a future.

With this, we can conclude that the author's goal in writing is to cure.

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
