Question

Read this passage: Kayla and Emma are best friends, and they're at Emma's house studying for a chemistry exam. Kayla is flunking chemistry, and Emma is a straight-A student. Kayla asks Emma if she can copy her answers during the test. Emma hates the idea of cheating, even for Kayla, and she sleeps terribly that night. She thinks about pretending to be sick to avoid the situation, but she goes to school and tells Kayla that she doesn't feel comfortable cheating and refuses to give Kayla the answers. Kayla fails the test and is mad at Emma for a long time. Eventually Kayla realizes that cheating is wrong, and she and Emma make up. Which statement best represents the conflict in this passage? A. Emma must decide whether or not to stay home sick from school and avoid Kayla. B. Emma must decide whether or not to help Kayla cheat on the chemistry test. C. Emma must decide whether or not to help Kayla study for the chemistry test. D. Emma must decide whether or not to tell the teacher that Kayla cheated on the test.​

Answer 1

Answer: Simple it's B.

Explanation:

It wouldn't be A, because it won't fix the issue. It can't be D because then she'll get in trouble for cheating even if she was asked to, she was peer pressured into "helping" her friend cheat.  It couldn't be, C because emma couldn't decide before the day was over.
