The correct answer is C. The narrator's mother comes to school, and some of the kids mock her hairstyle.

Explanation:

In plot development, the conflict emerges after the exposition or background and this increases during the story due to events, the actions of characters, and other factors. In the case presented, a cultural conflict emerges because the narrator finds out the hairstyle of her mother that is similar to her own hairstyle is considered as strange in the new culture especially at her school and due to this, the narrator makes her hair look different for school without her mother noticing this.

In this context, the cultural conflict would increase or become worse in the case the mother discovers the behavior of the girl or if the mother discovers the opinion of children about her hairstyle because in this way the cultural conflict would involve more characters and there might be a confrontation between characters especially as the mother would debate between the new and the old culture. According to this, the plot development that would make the cultural conflict worse is "The narrator's mother comes to school, and some of the kids mock her hairstyle".

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
