The activity that helps Francie avoid telling lies is mindfulness. She is the protagonist of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn." The book tells the story of Francie from the time she is 11 until she goes to college at 17.

The novel also discusses the dreams of immigrant families in the United States during the early twentieth century.
The right answer is the D: In order to illustrate how romantic love makes the world seem new. The author starts by lyrically describing the refreshing, bright, and regenerating effect of dew and dawn on nature (she uses terms such as <em>stars</em>, <em>jewels</em>, <em>bright </em>and <em>gem</em>) in order to compare it with the one that the love of his lover ("fresh as the dawn") has on her. That love, like the dew and the dawn, has made a path for her where everything along the way shines as she passes by, solely for her own pleasure. It is, therefore, this romantic love that makes her seeing the world new, full of light and delicacy.
