Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

The word <em>"orphan"</em> used by Twain affects the memoir by showing how he feels alone, and realizing that everyone was making fun of him. He also feels that there is no one looking out for him.

When he was completely alone facing a real trouble, he began to be afraid and nervous and did not know what to do.
