"Gerbils’ teeth grow continuously; therefore, gerbils need to chew daily to keep their teeth short."
The correct answer is D <em>"while the narrator is a real person, his encounter with the cat is fictional."</em>
This is because we know for sure the narrator does exist, the story he tells is takes place on Earth but we don't know if the cat does. He brings joy and light to the world but it obvius it does not exist, he is talking to it while it is outside the real world.
It conveys the subject of the paragraph.
That way, the subject can be further elaborated and backed up with supporting statements/evidence in the following sentences of the paragraph :)
