Answer:

Having “a place by the window” means standing still while watching life go by.

The word "baptized" means that Esperanza would like to have the ability to change her name since birth and not change it now, after she has grown up.

We can associate the word "baptized", in this story, the word "reborn", "resurge".

Explanation:

In "My Name" by Sandra Cisneros we learn about Esperanza's thoughts on her name. She believes that her name does not have a good cootation, a good story and does not fit well among English speakers.

She recalls that she has the same name as her grandmother, who was a very strong woman, but who was trapped in an undesirable marriage, unable to experience life's opportunities and just watching life go by and time go by. Experanza does not want to have that destination, although she has the same name as Grandma.

Experanza wants to have a better life and believes that changing her name would be a good first step, but she didn't want to change her name now, she wanted to be baptized with another name, which indicates that she wanted to be reborn and have a different life.

Colin draw back the curtain from his mother's portrait because he wants Mary and Dickon to see her.

<h3>Why did Colin draw back the curtain?</h3>

He covered the portrait because he dislikes that she is laughing while he is so ill and unhappy and because he thinks of her as his treasure, one he does not wish to share with anyone.

However, he drawn back the rose-colored curtain in his room so that the portrait of his mother can be visible now.

Therefore, the Option A is correct.
