Read the passage below and answer the question. Miss Caroline apparently thought I was lying. "Let's not let our imaginations runaway with us, dear," she said. "Now you tell your father not to teach you anymore. It's best to begin reading with a fresh mind. You tell him I'll take over from here and try to undo the damage—." In the excerpt above, the words "You tell him I'll take over from here and try to undo the damage" suggests that Miss Caroline is _____. thankful for Atticus's teaching upset with Scout excited that Scout knows how to read unhappy that Atticus taught Scout to read

She is unhappy that Atticus taught Scout how to read. She referred to it as "damage," so she thinks it's a bad thing that Scout's being taught elsewhere. (I love To Kill A Mockingbird)
