In a self-fulfilling prophecy, a person's predication about another individual can appear in that person's reacting in the same way. In the given question, option C will be correct because, in this case, the lady with dyslexia may learn to read by adding some extra efforts but if someone tells her that she cannot learn to read, it will lead her to become illiterate. In this way, she confirms the prediction of the teller.
