This question refers to "Drum Dream Girl" by Margarita Engle.
Answer:
The correct answer is option C. They highlight the powerful dreams the girl has about playing the drums.
Explanation:
The girl loved to play the piano no matter what others said.
It had always been her dream and the fact that their parents told her that only boys should play the piano did not prevent her from doing what she liked best.
The words the author uses prove it. Let's look at the following quotes:
<em>"At home, her fingertips rolled out their own dreamy drum rhythm on tables and chairs ..."
</em>
<em>"Her hands seemed to fly as they rippled rapped and pounded all the rhythms of her drum dreams."</em>
Because of the seven years war (usually called French and Indian war in U.S. history books, but it was a global conflict) the British government was highly indebted and had to pay back the money.
