'Through the tunnel is a coming of age story BECAUSE JERRY GOES THROUGH A RITE OF PASSAGE IN THROUGH THE TUNNEL.
A coming of age genre in literature is one which focuses on the growth and development of an individual from a child to an adult. 
In through the tunnel, Jerry has to swim through the long passage of the rock tunnel in order to prove that he is no longer a child but a man, who is fearless and has all the qualities expected of a mature man.

Read the first sentence of "Code Talkers.”
Ivanshal [37]

Hi There!

Question - Cryptology, the study and use of secret codes, has been an important component of US military strategy since it was first used in the American Revolution to hide sensitive communications from British forces.

How does the author introduce the reader to code talkers?

Answer - by presenting an interesting fact

Why - The reason I say its option A is because the fact that it makes the most sense in a way that, the other options don't make any sense. Option B says telling an entertaining story when its not a story. Option C makes no sense because the first sentence dosen't contain a quotation. Option D makes no sense because the first sentence dosen't ask a question.

Hope This Helps :)
