Answer:

A). She does not want to be connected to the past.

Explanation:

Alice Walker's one of the most acknowledged short stories of her that intends to reflect the significance and timelessness of heritage that is associated with even the 'everyday objects'.

As per the question, Dee rejects her cultural identity as 'she didn't wish to remain connected to the past' as she's got educated now but her education has proved to be 'divisive'. She is now a changed Dee who thinks the 'quilt' is old-fashioned and thus, wanted them to display(as she has no desire to remain attached to her past or heritage) while her mama and Maggie forbids her to do this as they have kind of kinship or bond with those 'quilts'(symbolic of their heritage). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

I believe from what I see that every sentence has been turned from present tense to past tense. One example could be Number 5- Instead of, 'Peter is going to take the package later.", it could be in past tense, as in Peter already took the package- "Later, Peter took the package."

Hope this helped. Let me know if you have any more questions!
