Answer:
B. The children beg to play outside.
Explanation:
Anita Desai's short story "The Twilight Games" tells us about a group of children eagerly waiting for a sunset so they can come out and play. Bored and suffocated from spending the whole day inside, they beg their mother to let them out. Although they promised to stay in front of the house, on the veranda, until the sun completely sets, as soon as they got out, they start the game of hide and seek, running all over the neighborhood.
Having found a convenient place to hide, in the garage, the youngest boy, Ravi, is assured that he secured his win in the game.
However, he had stayed inside for too long, so when he finally came out, declaring victory, he found other children playing another game (acting out a funeral) completely forgetting about him.

Answer:
With careful student pairings, academics would improve and new friendships would form.
Explanation:
Pathos is the appeal to emotions. Two of the sentences really appeal to the readers' emotions. The sentence about student pairings and the sentence about families complaining. The question though asks which uses pathos to support the claim that "A student tutoring program should be established so that peers can help one another." The last sentence about families complaining does not directly support the claim that peers can help one another. The cost benefit of a student-run program is just a side benefit.
