The correct answer is A. Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver

Explanation:

In grammar, the colon (:) is mostly used to introduce a list or set of elements that explain a previous sentence. This means the colon should be placed right before the elements it introduces and besides this, it can only be included if the previous sentence is independent. According to this, in the sentence "Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" the colon should be placed after the word "games" and before "2003 Aspen" because "2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" is the list of items that explain the Olympic games Hannah Teter participated in, also by placing the colon in this position the first sentence is complete and independent.

No one in my family believed in eating out especially not my grandmother. I will never forget the time when my brother and I begged her to get us takeout burgers and fries for lunch."

That is because the first, second, and the fourth paragraphs are about supporting her claim while C is a counterclaim because it speaks in favor of fast food.

White raven [17]
The main conflict of "The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst is Brother's inability to deal with Doodle's disabilities: his concern more for himself than Doodle. When Doodle is born, Brother considers killing him because he is "not right." He was born when I was six and was, from the outset, a disappointment

Doodle and his brother helps show the theme of trying to meet the expectations of others and yourself can harm oneself. Additionally, Doodle struggles internally with his own expectations. He hopes to become more able for himself and others, but his body cannot keep up.
