Question 2

Three students are discussing their approaches to understanding the information being taught in their history class.
I always read my history before I do math, Ken notes. That gets it out of the way, and then I can enjoy myself.
I never miss a homework assignment in that class, Tim shrugs. You know how Mrs. Cooksey is about homework. I'd be scared to death not to do it.
I always read the history assignment before I go to class, Toni comments. Mrs. Cooksey goes so fast. If I've already read about the stuff she's discussing, I don't have to work so hard to keep up.

The student that best illustrates strategic behavior is:

a. Ken.
b. Tim.
c. Toni.
