This is the full question:
Read the excerpt from Wonder by R. J. Palacio.
She can get really annoyed when people do something rude. Like, for instance, one time in the playground some older kids made some noises. I don't even know what the noises were exactly because I didn't hear them myself, but Via heard and she just started yelling at the kids.
Based on the excerpt, which inference can be made?
A. August is usually relaxed.
B. August and Via have a close relationship.
C. The older kids are teasing Via.
D. Via is older than August.
The answer is C because based on the available information, Via got angry when the kids said something.
From her reaction, the kids must have said something to upset her or most likely, teased her.
As for the other options, there's simply not enough information available from this passage that points to Augusta or her age or relationship with Via.
Answer:
Because of the expense, the level of dangerousness and because the cold war had already ended.
Explanation:
With the end of the cold war, the space race was no longer so important that there was no reason to maintain a dispute with Russia. In addition, space exploration was a very high investment for the government, which preferred to invest in things that are more popular and accessible to everyone, such as commercial travel. This economic issue, added to the danger that space explorations posed, meant that the government had no interest in supporting international travel.
