the problem?

her" in formal academic English.

C. The textbook glossary
D. The instructor's biography
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Correct because a rubric specifies the grading criteria and performance expectations
for an assignment.

A. After the long lecture ended.
B. After the long lecture ended, we left. [CORRECT]
C. We left after the long lecture.
