Answer:

Jean thinks that adults are incapable of having any interesting conversation with.

Explanation:

In the story "Homesickness" by Jean Fritz, the author provides a look into the life she lived when she was a child, having to stay in China. The autobiographical yet fictionalized account of her life living in an unfamiliar surrounding in far China gives a sense of what Jean thinks of her own identity, stuck between the two cultures yet unable to identify with any side in particular.

The given excerpt talks about how different the concerns of the children and the adults seem to have. Jean states<em> "grown-ups made friends and talked their usual boring grown-up talk</em>", suggestive of what she thinks about the adults' lives. To her, it seems like the adults are living a rather "boring" life, talking about the useless and boring "grown-up talk". This seems to show that Jean thinks the adults are difficult to have any interesting conversation with.

1. The POV is first person, because the narrator says ‘I’ when speaking about themself

2. When someone laughs on the street late at night you can hear it for miles, and usually if you’re able to hear it that means you’re not doing something exactly enjoyable?

3. I’m not too sure about this one, but I did some:

The cab I had was a little old but smelled like someone’s just wiped down the leather. I rarely get those fragrant kind of cabs if I go anywhere late at night. It was so quiet out, though hardly lonesome. There weren’t many people out on the street because most everyone was staying in with loved ones and relaxing. Now and then you just saw a boy and a girl crossing a street, with the arms around each other’s waist and all, or a bunch of energetic looking guys and their dates, all of them laughing like birds in the morning at something clever that had been said. New York’s amazing when someone laughs on the street very late at night. You can hear it for miles. It makes you feel like you’re not alone at all.
