Answer: B.) intentional infliction of emotional distress

Explanation: Emotional damage or distress often result from actions aimed at an individual's psychological system. Negative words, comments or analysis of an individual usually contribute a lot to the emotional trauma people usually witness which could result in loss of confidence or despondency. The professor's comment seems damaging and it is capable of inflicting emotional distresses on the target. Therefore, the professor could be held liable of intentional infliction of emotional distress on the student if sued.

Personality Disorder is the correct answer.

People with personality disorder exhibits a personality that is considered odd or eccentric. Research has shown that those who suffer from personality disorders do not experience emotions the same way as the majority of people do.

How does rodriguez compare his own attitudes towards reading to his parents' attitudes toward reading?
Grace [21]

Rodriguez compare his own attitudes towards reading to his parents' attitudes toward reading that they are not as intelligent as his teachers.

Paralleling the  Rodriguez's education were the increasing contrary feelings Rodriguez was developing toward his parents. While he did not mean to be hurtful and rude towards them, he found that he was  becoming angry when they did not seem to be with the same capabilities as his teachers have . Moreover  as a student, Rodriguez looked toward his teachers, and not his parents, as the role models for him.

In this way he compared his own attitude as a scholarship boy with his parents.
