Of the opening sentences that were presented here that strongly engages the reader and provides context to them would be the second one which is "We could have had a worse weekend, but it's awfully hard to beat Bigfoot and bugs."
The first and third one were just not good enough because it exposes the rest of the context to the reader and lets them have the idea of what you are talking about which usually leads to the readers not choosing to continue to read, thus taking out the reader's engagement but still provides context. The last one is better than the first and third, but it spilled the beans when it mentioned the particulars as to what made the weekend bad to worse. The answer is just right. It has the impact that would hook the reader to know more about your weekend and why is Bigfoot and bugs together in your statement. The rain wasn't mentioned which would be ideal to make the story telling take a turn to much worse which would spike up the interest of the reader.

Answer:
1. A. Faith shows people what is right.
2. C. "The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live." (Paragraph 17)
Explanation:
The given passage is part of the story of the children of Israel in Egypt. This passage reveals their ordeal in the hands of Pharoah, king of Egypt. He mandated the midwives to kill the children of the Hebrew women that are males. But the passage clearly staated the midwives feared God and didn't obey.
This is faith in action. The fear of God they had depicted that they had faith in God and that led them to do what is right. They rejected and refused to carry out the king's devilish commandments because they had faith in God as a result of their fear in God. Faith in God makes us to do what is right.
I would say either A or C. Well sounds better. C
