I think D, it's the only one that makes it clear that it is a person taking a nap - the other sentences could suggest it's the stove or the curtains (or both!) taking a nap :)

An important element of an autobiography is self-evaluation or introspection. Which two sentences in this excerpt from the Autob
Talja [164]

Introspection is the mental process shown mainly in autobiographies in which the writer analyzes and formulates a judgment of his or her mental state. It is a self-declaration of one’s own mental or cognitive either decline or progress.

In this excerpt from the Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin the two sentences that show the narrator's introspection are:

<em>“In truth, I found myself incorrigible with respect to Order; and now I am grown old, and my memory bad, I feel very sensibly the want of it.”</em>

<em>“But, on the whole, tho' I never arrived at the perfection I had been so ambitious of obtaining, but fell far short of it, yet I was, by the endeavour, a better and a happier man than I otherwise should have been if I had not attempted it; as those who aim at perfect writing by imitating the engraved copies, tho' they never reach the wish'd-for excellence of those copies, their hand is mended by the endeavor, and is tolerable while it continues fair and legible.”</em>

The first two sentences from the first paragraph are the ones that show introspection best.
