(c)online learning is gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional classroom settings.
(d)virtual schools offer the same academic and elective offerings as regular schools.

The correct answer to the question: Which statement is supported by the paragraph and reinforces an argument for online learning?, would be, C: Online learning is gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional classroom settings.

Explanation:

The reason for this being the correct answer comes from the paragraph itself. When the text states that online learning has become "disruptive innovation", they are not talking in a negative, but rather a positive way. Then, the text provides a specific example of why this "disruptive innovation" has been a positive thing. It talks about the case of Detroit, where there is a high percentage of teenagers dropping from schools because they are bored with the traditional schooling system and standards. Thus, the district decided to open a high school online to be able to recover those teenagers who had dropped out from school. The result was a very positive one and this what the text is actually stating is that online learning, given the good and positive results it is showing, is becoming a good alternative to the old traditional classroom system.

imparadis't in one anothers arms  

the happier eden, shall enjoy their fill  

of bliss on bliss, while i to hell am thrust,  

where neither joy nor love, but fierce desire,  

among our other torments not the least,  

still unfulfill'd with pain of longing pines;  

yet let me not forget what i have gain'd  

from their own mouths; all is not theirs it seems:  

one fatal tree there stands of knowledge call'd,  

forbidden them to taste: knowledge forbidd'n?  

suspicious, reasonless. why should their lord  

envie them that? can it be sin to know,
