The answer would be A. The rest of the sentence is in past tense, so that would also be.
The question above is intended to assess your interpretation of reading "The Outsiders" and your ability to write a persuasive letter. For that reason, I cannot write this letter to you, but I will show you how to write it.
First of all, you should know that Paul Holden is an old friend of Darry, Ponyboy's brother. He's always trying to stir up riots and pick fights with Darry.
You also need to know that a persuasive letter is a letter that wants to convince the reader to think or do something a certain way.
Based on that, you can write the letter as follows:
- Start with a greeting. That greeting might be "Dear Paul Holden."
- Start a paragraph with the author of the letter introducing himself and showing his reason for writing this letter.
- Start another paragraph the author of the letter shows the reasons why the rumble should not happen.
- Have the author of the letter point out the advantages that everyone would have access to if the rumble didn't happen and why this is so important.
- End the letter by thanking the reader of the letter for understanding and show the author of the letter to say goodbye.
Don't forget that the author of the letter needs to be convincing, so he must show specific and powerful reasons why the rumble doesn't occur.

Answer: E) My mother considered the idea of a child sleeping alone a cruel American practice.
This sentence shows that the mother had a cultural background that was different from the American one. Even though for most Americans, a child sleeping alone would be common, for her it was a cruel practice. The excerpt shows that Hema's mother does not endorse all American practices, which indicates she has a different cultural heritage, in this case, a Bengali one.
