Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Madeline would try to make herself feel better about her performance. She may claim that she just did not care that much about the paper. Or, she may claim that the instructor did not grade it fairly. Another possibility is that she will say that she did not try that hard on the paper, and the grade does not really reflect her abilities.
