What of option A? "The women had shingled hair ........... they sat down."

What tells you that Lymie had an impression in that one? Does any word in that quotation do that?

Obviously, the answer is NO?

Or, do you have a contrary opinion?

None of the verbs in that quotation has Lymie as its object.
Nothing "had" him. He wasn't "shingled". And neither was he "exposed".
And besides, none of these verbs may mean or imply "impression" or "impressed upon".

Now, let's examine option C.
"But it was the women's voices, the terrible not quite sober pitch of the women's voices which caused Lymie to skim over two whoe pages without knowing what was on them."

Something happened to Lymie's mind here and 'he skimmed' and 'he failed to know.'

Therefore, he had an impression.
The verb "caused" implies that "he had an impression".

Now, let's examine question 4. The question is rather asking for the cause of the impression Lymie had.

I think it's now easy to figure out that the answer here is A.

'Voices' implies 'noisy and distracting'

Does it not?

This is the way to analyse the questions and the options.

In Nigeria here, we overlook learning differences/difficulties. Parents and teachers deny dyslexia, dyscalculia and so on even when the LD is very obvious in a child. Denial or rejection has never been and will never be of help.
Worse still, some parents, guardians and teachers term children with LD "dullards, slow learners, blockheads, olodo" and all the bad names in the world. The truth however is that they are not any of these. It's actually the teachers, parents, guardians, siblings, friends, neighbours and the likes that make life difficult for the children with LD. These children learn differently from the way most people do. But people around them do not understand this. They want to force their style of learning on them and things become difficult, frustrating and fruitless.
LD is not a disease nor a curse. It's just a character or better still a different way of seeing or doing things.
