Choose the answer. read the description. even though she has been told to ignore it, mary goes out in search of the source of the crying noise. which best describes mary's character, based upon this description? a. she is disobedient and rebellious. b. she is afraid of the world around her. c. she is curious and independent. d. she is easily disturbed from her sleep.

C. She is curious and independent.

Based on this description, Mary seems to be a curious girl, as she wants to find out the source of the crying noise. She also appears to be independent because she is making decisions that are different from those that are suggested to her.

We cannot assume she is disobedient and rebellious because we do not know whether looking for the source of the noise was prohibited. Perhaps she was told to ignore it as an advice, not as an order. She is also not afraid as she goes investigating on her own. Finally, there is no indication of the noise being at night, or of it having any impact on her sleep.

the sentence that avoid faulty coordination is:

culture, which is well represented in philadelphia, plays a major role including theatre, music, and the visual arts.  

faulty coordination occurs when the writer gives equal importance two different ideas (clauses) which in fact are not equivalent. in order to correct a misplaced clause or idea, the writer can place less important or emphatic ideas in a relative clause as in the previous sentence.
