I believe it is option 2. (a chronological book of American history)
The strategy that would most improve Laurel’s statement to make it more conventional is option D) “Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.” When speaking to her new neighbors about babysitting their daughter, Laurel needs to adapt her language to her audience, in this case adults, in order to express her ideas in a way that everybody understands. The rest of the options are incorrect since the language used is not informal and does not interfere with the understanding of her message.
Lennie's "I Am" Poem
I am strong and confused.
I wonder why people want to kill me.
I hear George's voice in my head.
I see Curley's wife, lifeless in the hay.
I am strong and confused.
I pretend to understand what my capabilities are.
I feel extremely worried.
I touch a mouse in my pocket because it calms me.
I worry about the rabbits so much that I killed Curley's wife.
I cry over what George will say.
I am strong and confused.
I understand the seriousness of what i have just done.
I say to be confident.
I dream about tending the rabbits on my own ranch with George and Candy.
I try to control my actions but I cannot.
I hope to not get in trouble.
I am strong and confused.
