Marco’s Eventful Night

Awakened by Buddy’s thunderous barking, I looked out my window and was surprised to see my gigantic dog barking at the back door. Buddy preferred being outdoors and never barked to come inside, so I became alarmed. He was barking at something inside the house! My heart sank, and I slowly crept down the stairs to let Buddy inside.
I paused when I heard soft movement coming from the kitchen. My heart sank even further as I realized I had to go through the kitchen to let Buddy in. As I crouched on the floor to peek around the corner, I caught a glimpse of the striped tail of a raccoon digging in a box of crackers. Startled by my loud sigh, he quickly jumped on the counter and out the open window. I leaped across the kitchen to close it and watched as the intruder scampered from the yard.

Based on the evidence in the text, why did Marco most likely sigh loudly when he saw the raccoon?

A) The sight of the raccoon made him laugh hard and loud.
B) Marco was relieved the intruder was a harmless raccoon.
C) Marco was trying to startle the raccoon so it would leave.
D) He wanted the raccoon to come to him so he could pet it.

Read the two conclusions to cinderella. conclusion a: “this is not the true bride,” said he to the father; “have you no other daughters? ” then cinderella took her shoe off, and put on the golden slipper, and it fitted as if it had been made for her. and when he drew near the prince knew her, and said, “this is the right bride.” then he took cinderella on his horse and rode away. conclusion b: he obliged cinderella to sit down, and, putting the slipper to her little foot, he found it went on very easily, and fitted her as if it had been made of wax. the astonishment of her two sisters was great, but it was still greater when cinderella pulled out of her pocket the other slipper and put it on her foot. thereupon, in came her godmother, who, having touched cinderella's clothes with her wand, made them more magnificent than those she had worn before. and now her two sisters found her to be that beautiful lady they had seen at the ball. they threw themselves at her feet to beg pardon for all their ill treatment of her. cinderella took them up, and, as she embraced them, said that she forgave them with all her heart, and begged them to love her always. she was conducted to the young prince, dressed as she was. he thought her more charming than ever, and, a few days after, married her. cinderella, who was as good as she was beautiful, gave her two sisters a home in the palace, and that very same day married them to two great lords of the court. which conclusion to cinderella is stronger? why? conclusion a is stronger because it uses dialogue that readers understand the prince's feelings toward cinderella. conclusion b is stronger because it describes a surprising and positive resolution to the conflict between the characters. conclusion a is stronger because it contains an emotional moment in which cinderella learns something. conclusion b is stronger because it shows that all of the characters changed and got what they deserved.

The author most likely uses the word monstrous rather than the word “unpleasant” because it has a more positive connotation than the word “unpleasant.” a more negative connotation than the word “unpleasant.” a more neutral connotation than the word “unpleasant.” almost the same connotation as the word “unpleasant.”

Plz i'm really bad with these and it would really mean a lot if you could ?
