My mom gave me a Kool Action game for my birthday on October 27, 2010, and I was SO excited. When I opened it, I could see that parts were missing, so we went back to the store and tried to return it. They said tough luck and wouldn't even talk to us. Now, I'm writing to you to try and get my money back so I can get something else for my birthday that actually works. Mom said it cost $109.99, but we spent a lot of time trying to get it returned, so I think you should send me at leat $125.00. Besides, it was for my birthday( here is the passage) And the answer is B. The tone of the letter is too informal and lacks details needed for a good resolution

assuming the ones you have filled in are correct
I believe the best answer is the first sentence because that is where the action seems to occur.
1. Not writing the professors last name. And using ”slang” words such as; ”Yo” or ”Idk”.
2. I would correct the student and be unsure why they would think this is appropriate to send to a teacher. I would ask them why they would think it was.
3. Obviously, they seem like they don't care much about having good manners, especially when writing to a superior. It is unprofessional and I would be unpleased with the student who wrote it.
Also, the email states that he didn't go to school the day before.

Hello, Professor, * last name. *
I just wanted to ask if you could please send me any assignments you had given out yesterday and if there was any important information that I may have missed?
I apologize for not being able to make it
yesterday, something important had come up.
Can you tell me when our next test is, so I can prepare?
I’ve also attached the worksheet that was due.
-Best regards, BJ. (Or his full name.)
