Answer:
A
Explanation:
The first passage is a speech made by a Southern white man, while the second is a biographical sketch of one of American's greatest African-American thinkers.
I believe the correct answer is D- <span> It rained heavily during the afternoon, but we managed to have our picnic anyway.</span>
As she has already prepared and rehearsed several times, we can not say the answer is a or b. Both c and d are really good options but I would say D is the correct one, cause what she needs is to have perspective of what she will attain after her presentation and to do that she needs a positive thinking. Hope this helps
The type of context clue in the sentence is a definition.
