The best option that describes what the author tries to express is option A, as he describes his father as someone who was appreciated by others and involved with the people.

Option D talks about anger, which is also not included in the text.

The "Then" part shows that there was some introduction to it, that something preceded this sentence - a story about trying to do something and failing. Also, we learn that the speaker was going to do something about it, to try harder and succeed eventually, and we are expecting to read about that later in the essay.</span>

In the poem, death does not discriminate in the following ways:
1. It does not discriminate based on age. It comes for everyone either old or young. The old gardner due to his age felt death has come for him. But death was actually there for his master instead.
2. It does not discriminate based on status. It does matter if one is wealthy or poor. Death came for the master instead of the gardner.
3. It doesn't discriminate on its friendship. It is friends with everyone. It knows everyone.
