Answer:

C. Unmarried girls should devote themselves to painstakingly caring for their parents and demonstrating great respect for them.

Explanation:

Zhao Ban's poem "On Reverence for Parents" is an extensive expression of how unmarried women must take care of their parents. The poem 'lists' the ways unmarried girls must take care of their parents to be honorable to their ancestors.

In the poem, the speaker begins by saying <em>"Girls not yet gone out from their homes"</em> should take good care to be of servitude to their parents. She details how they must be of 'use' to their parents and help them navigate their lives. This, according to the speaker, is how <em>"[they] can honor [their] ancestors." </em>

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
