Answer:

C) The author tells about seeing Russell as a grown-up and accepting him as is. That is the detail that best explains how the author develops the theme over the course of the text. In ¨About Russell¨ the author starts describing how his brother used to be as they were children and continues describing how he gradually changed as they grew up. She had a vision for what her brother would become which was different from what he actually became. But by the end of the text she states that a ¨A grown man, Russell simply will not do what he doesn’t want to¨. That indicated that he could not be forced to change and therefore she accepted him as he was indicated by the statement ¨...my family simply accepts him as is¨

That's for part A

And part B is D I guess

What does an ode typically address?
valina [46]
An ode typically addresses something to be praised or glorified.

As a result, an ode can address anything beautiful or great: a person, place, event, or even a thing (as in Ode On A Grecian Urn). Basically, an ode addresses anything the poet considers worthy of praise.
