This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

A. is tired of running and would rather coach.

C. is proud because she won the race.
D. thinks people only smile a real smile when they win.
Answer:

Explanation:
"Raymond's Run" is a short story by Toni Cade Bambara. It is narrated from Squeaky's perspective. She is Raymond's sister and is beautifully loyal to her brother, not accepting anyone saying anything to him about his being different. <u>She is brave and feisty, ready to pick up a fight with anyone, including the girl mentioned in the excerpt we are analyzing here.</u>
<u>Once they compete, Squeaky begins to admire Gretchen. Squeaky, being strong and honest herself, admires those same qualities in others. Gretchen put up a fight and tried her best during the race. For that reason, she has gained Squeaky's respect.</u>
A writer picks sentences that are related in some way.
Smirnov asks for his money back.
In the beginning of “The Bear,” by Anton Checkov, the
readers are introduced to two characters—Luka and Popova. All of the information (possible
choices/responses) for this question is presented. Readers do find out that Popova’s husband was
unfair to her. Readers do find out that
Popova’s husband has died. Readers do
find out that Luka has lost his wife.
And, readers do find out that Smirnov asks for his money back. However, the fact that Smirnov asks for his
money back does not immediately occur in the play, and readers find this
information out only after the play establishes itself. As such, this bit of information does not
occur during the exposition (beginning/background information) of the play.
