No one was looking forward to tommy's fifth birthday. on that day, he would be removed from the family to enter communal living.

I would say the bet answer would be option D "Five-year-olds will be evaluated." This would set the stories setting as a dystopia because no five year old would be evaluated at such a young age and given a job. Tommy was also worried that his creativity, and intelligence would go unnoticed and he would be placed as a coal processor and hoped he would become a scientist or a programmer. Also, remember that a dystopia is a made up world of injustice and suffering.

Hope this helps.
