The appositive phrase is not Maya Lin, like the comment above me stated, but it is B) Chinese-American.
An appositive phrase is usually separated from the rest of the sentence by commas, and it describes the subject, which here is Maya Lin.
Answer:
C. Arturo goes after what he wants, but the adults just accept what life gives them.
Explanation:
This paragraph contains a picture of Arturo's grandfather. Arturo describes his grandfather's life journey and coming to Brooklyn. He portraits his grandfather as a person, who even in the hardest times, succeeds to find a solution. Arturo gives the commentary to this situation. The adults accept whatever is thrown at them because they are not willing to find a better solution.
They are reconciled with the current situation and Arturo does not want this for him. He is dedicated to going after what he wants.
