Answer 1

Answer:

A. Alisha was angry with her brother for criticizing her

Explanation:

This question is about the text "After the Fire", where we learn that Alisha's house has been completely destroyed by fire, requiring her parents to build a new home. Alishia was happy to have a different house and asked her parents to have a room just for her and it was not necessary to share it with her sister. Entretnaot, Alishia's older brother, criticized her for making demands on parents who already had enough concerns, instead of being grateful for the privilege of having a new home. Alishia did not like his brother's criticism and said that he thinks that way because he never had to share a room with anyone.
