What does Rhonda think Andy needs?

• A. Help
• B. A break
• C. A new friend
• D. A vacation

Answer: (A)

The main idea is to read what a character believes another character needs based on how they see him coping with that situation. Rhonda notices Andy is overwhelmed by the consequences of the incident and is not handling the emotional strain well—guilt, fear, and withdrawal show she’s worried about his safety and well-being. Those signs point to needing support from someone who can help him manage what he’s going through, not just a temporary distraction.

That’s why the best answer is that she thinks Andy needs help. A break, a new friend, or a vacation might provide short-term relief, but they don’t address the deeper emotional distress and the need for guidance or professional support that Rhonda recognizes. Her concern reflects a belief that he needs someone to talk to and help him cope with what he’s facing.
