Answer:
B: It gives the reader information about the relationship Icarus had with his father.
Explanation:
You did not present the two passages to which the question refers. However, taking into account the attached passage and assuming that it is passage 1, we can say that it helps to understand the relationship between Icarus and his father. This is because it shows how close they are to drawing up a plan together and giving them freedom. In addition, it shows Dedalus' concern about the height that Icarus was flying and his disappearance after the fall. This shows that there was a strong father-son relationship between them.
