The coastal beachfront was especially prone to a strong undercurrent because of the Gulfstream. Several guard members on the boat watched the scene unfold as the cutter headed toward shore. They saw two surfboarders heading toward a small raft with a young child inside. The raft was close to flipping over.

Which of the following passages best illustrates Farewell to Manzanar as a ‘coming of age' story?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

C. "..... I had to walk nearly a mile ... yet I made the trip gladly"

Explanation:

'Coming of age' exemplifies a genre that deals with the growth of the protagonist from youth to adulthood. Bildungsroman also illustrates the sub-genre of this genre. 'Farewell to Manzanar' depicts the life experiences of Jeanne Wakatsuki. <em>The story of Wakatsuki too displays a coming of age story as it begins with her childhood and moves forward to her growing up as an adult and struggle with the conflicts of life. Thus, the above phrase displays a coming of age story as it talks about the trip(her growth).</em>
