The correct answer is A. That she is ashamed of how poor her family is

Explanation:

"Everyday Use" is a short story written by Alice Walker, this story explores different issues related to family, traditions and cultural identity by three main characters Mama an afro-American woman and her two daughters Dee and Maggie who have different perspectives from their family and the way tradition and identity should be preserved.

In the case of the excerpt presented, the narrator explains the old house of the family burned and because of this, the family moved to a new house. However, Dee does not like the new house besides this, she expresses she will still visit her family but never take her friends to the house. The election of words such as "tear it down" and "no matter where we "chose" to leave" show Dee mainly hates the situation in which her family lives and it is ashamed of the conditions in which they lived, because of this she rejects taking other people to the house. Thus, this excerpt mainly reflects Dee is ashamed of how poor her family is.
