1 is D.
2 is both A and C, assuming A has a typo and should be "Independent Clause." Otherwise just C.
3 probably is A, but I'm not sure. I think context is needed. The question is about paragraph 2 but probably is predicated on how it fits in with the rest of the passage.
ETA: Students shouldn't lose points for getting the wrong answer on a homework assignment. The purpose of homework is to reinforce learning and to allow the teacher to track progress. I don't believe in taking off points for wrong answers because if the students already knew all the right answers, they wouldn't need to do homework. Disclosure: I'm a former middle school language arts teacher.
