Answer:

C) Kerouac’s use of syntax gives his writing the natural ease and flow of informal conversation

Explanation:

"Dean had arrived the night before, the first time in New York, with his beautiful little sharp chick Marylou; they got off the Greyhound ..." This quotation exemplifies Kerouac’s use of conversational syntax, which means that some words are omitted. He does not use all the words in the expression , the first time in New York. The reader assumes it refers to Dean and Marylou's first time in New York. The use of colloquial words also gives the text a conversational tone: sharp chick- smart woman- . Then , the writer, jumps onto another event ; he tells how these two persons arrived in New York: they got off the Greyhound bus. The reader has to reconstruct the whole idea. This could be : Dean and Marylou arrived in New York for the first time. They had got by bus from Greyhound and got off at 50th Street.

In the text, specific characters serve as an allegory for distractions that one must resist to live a life of faith.

I believe the correct answer is: “…the two pilgrims successfully resist Flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and Atheist, who tries to convince them that the Celestial City does not exist.”

In this excerpt from “Pilgrim's Progress” (1678), a Christian allegory written by John Bunyan, specific characters that serve as an allegory for distractions that one must resist to live a life of faith are Flatterer and Atheist which try to divert tempt Christian and Hopeful from the proper path. Therefore, the quotation that best develops this idea is:
“…the two pilgrims successfully resist Flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and Atheist, who tries to convince them that the Celestial City does not exist.”

P.S. Note that if it wasn't plural, the main distraction would be Apollyon, a form of Satan, as the Satan was tempting Christ the most in the desert.
