Letter C is the correct answer.

A self-fulfilling prophecy is an unbased expectation (either positive or negative) of one person towards another person (or event) that leads this person to act or behave accordingly. In this case, a dyslexic person can read if he/she makes an extra effort to do so. However, his/her belief someone's false prophecy can lead him/her to become illiterate.
