9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?

Jonas gives a speech, and the industry leaders change their minds.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The most contrived ending to the above-mentioned story can be that-
“Jonas gives a speech, and the industry leaders change their minds”
The above statement is counted as most contrived amongst the other available statement because It is highly unlikely for industry leaders to get pacified by Jonas advocacy for minimalistic living.
These industry leaders have their core interest and stakes at the challenge and it is highly possible that they won't leave any stone unturned in defaming Jonas as fraud and scamster.
