Read each of the excerpts from "The Revolt of Mother." There was a sudden dropping and enlarging of the lower part of the old ma

Answer:

D. to develop the relationship between the old man and the boy.

Explanation:

This is the statement that best describes why the author included both of these scenes in the story. In this text, the author draws a clear relationship between the old man and the boy. While the old man seems unsettled, the boy seems completely unconcerned by the conversation that just took place. These shows the two people occupy very different roles in the household.
