Answer: A. According to Dr. Clare Wood, who led the study, "the use of abbreviations, commonly used in texting, helped to develop kids' reading and writing skills."

This is the most likely answer to the question. Option A best integrates the information for several reasons. First, the passage cites the person who originally expressed the information (Dr. Clare Wood). Second, the passage conveys the information accurately. Third, the passage uses quotation marks around the quote since it transcribes the exact words of the speaker.
