Answer: A) Dave is like a child because all of his pay is given to his mother.

Explanation: In the given excerpt we can see that Dave wants to buy a gun, with the money he have earned at the old Joe's store, but old Joe gives that money to Dave's mom, so Dave says that he is going to beg his mother to give him some of the money, so he can by a gun. Based on the excerpt we can infer that Dave is like a child (even though he is almost seventeen) because all his pay is given to his mother.

The reader can infer that <span>Dave is like a child because all of his pay is given to his mother.

Considering that he is still 17 (but he already wants to own a gun), he is still relatively young and it is reasonable that his pay goes to his mother.</span>
