Answer:
A. to identify how the author's reasons relate to the claim
Explanation:

Answer:
C, He maintains that the fear of death and skeletons is irrational and should be conquered.
Explanation:
Here is what in the text makes me believe this.
- "So he is <em>mysteriously</em> ashamed of the skeleton of himself in death." He finds it mysterious to why people are ashamed or afraid of skeletons.
- "One would think it would be most unwise in a man to be afraid of a skeleton..." His reflection upon the fear of skeletons.
- "A man might as well say that a factory chimney was typical of bankruptcy." I interpret this as making fun of the fear of skeletons.
- "There is no reason why this creature... the living skeleton, should not become the essential symbol of life." I think he's proclaiming that skeletons deserve more credit.
