Answer: D: to warn them that tensions in town were escalating

Explanation:

In the book Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry, Mr Jamieson, a white lawyer who is sympathetic to the black families in the south, comes to David Logan to warn him about tensions rising in town due to the boycott of the Wallace store which was run by the racist and violent Wallace brothers.

David Logan and his family had led a boycott of the Wallace General store such that black people stopped shopping there and began shopping at Vicksburg instead.

This started ruining the business of the Wallace store and this led to one of the brothers, Thomas Wallace, telling people he was going stop the purchasing from Vicksburg. Mr Jamieson upon hearing this, came to tell David (Papa) about the rising tension in the town.

It's not clear where the paragraph break is between one and two, but I might be able to help you. The last option is incorrect, because all of the text relates which is why it's hard to determine where the paragraph break might be. Paragraph one does not offer a solution as it isn't until the end we know the cause of the dark day. While both paragraphs have at least one fact, paragraph one seemingly is full of guesses as to the cause of the dark day. This leaves the only correct option as the first one. The researchers decided to investigate the cause of the dark day, and then the results are reported.

PolarNik [594]
I would say D is more appropriate. It's possible she has interest, and that is the root of her observations, but adoration is clear by her vivid, positive description.
