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.

Based on the passage, the reader can infer that Beowulf is planning to continue being a warrior.
The first option is incorrect because everybody loved Beowulf and was sad for his departure. The second option is also incorrect given that it was a common thing among the Anglo-Saxons to brag before battle. The last option is incorrect because Beowulf never planned on becoming a king.
