Rafael's parents are coming in for a conference because his grades are slipping. you know from past interactions that they tend to be defensive and critical and like to share each concern they have individually. which of the following statements are you least likely to say at the start of their conference?
a. "i've set aside 30 minutes for us to talk. if we still have things we need to talk about after 30 minutes have passed, we'll schedule a follow-up appointment."b. "it's so nice to see you two again. rafael has shown some significant growth this semester."c. "i'm glad you came in and that we have this chance to put our heads together and generate ideas. i know we all want to rafael be successful in this class."d. "i'm glad you're here. rafael has been struggling, and i think the problem is that he is not doing his homework. what if you guys put a system in place where he can't play video games until his homework is done? "

"It's so nice to see you two again. Rafael has shown some significant growth this semester.

Explanation:

Rafael's teacher should not say that Rafael had shown significant growth due to the fact that he is not doing well and their parents will not accept, after this statement, that their son is not doing as well as he should. The teacher should not say something that is not true, specially with parents that are defensive and critical.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
