Maybe c because you have to start going to next paragraph if its the last sentence
Access prior knowledge, make connections and set up a reason
B is correct, "<span> Christina and I went to the same summer camp for years (since we were 8)" </span>parentheses are used when you have some extra information you want to add, but its not completely necessary. Like how they started going to the same summer camp when they were 8, you can still read the sentence fine without it, but it's a nice piece of information.
Can you give more information?
