Answer:

A. Critical

Explanation:

Annie uses the words "iron-gated prison" to describe the middle school. Obviously, middle schools are not literally prisons, but when described as prisons, one can believe that Annie truly felt as if the institution limited her freedom and kept her "chained" to schoolwork.

With this kind of attitude toward school, it would only be natural for the answer to have something to do with dislike.

B) Annie doesn't feel hesitant (which means cautious) because she clearly expresses her thoughts very bluntly.

C) She is definitely not regretful because she's glad to have "escaped" from the school.

D) If Annie is not regretful, then she cannot be devastated (which, in this scenario, is basically just a more extreme version of regretful).

Thus, the answer is A (critical) because she's very keen on pointing out the negative aspects of the school.

Hope this helps!

How does social constructionism help us understand the social problems process?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

Social constructionism helps us understand the social problems process. This approach suggests that the degree to which a social problem is perceived as problematic, also the kind of problem it is understood to be. It is a function of social interaction.

Drinking and driving is not only embarrassing but also a threatening crime in USA. But it was that way always, somewhere it is serious crime whereas else where is not.

Fallow and insight in sentence
Cerrena [4.2K]

Thanks to the agricultural expert's insight, we decided to let the field lay fallow for a year to improve the soil quality - it was a success!

Fallow usually means that something is not fertile or being used to grow anything. Often it is seen used when talking about fields used to grow crops. Allowing a field to lay fallow for a certain amount of time can help it gain back some of the key nutrients in the soil that excessive farming may have depleted. Another word for insight is knowledge.
