Answer:

C. It conveys a sense of lighthearted nostalgia at the simple pleasures in life.

Explanation:

The character Ralph expresses how he feels by watching the kids playing in front of them in response to Curtis' statement. This resulted in Ralph reminiscing about old childhood times together with Curtis; it is evidence that the aesthetic element of the story resides in nostalgia towards simple moments in life; there are no extreme emotions involved in the conversation (it's lighthearted).

1. Why does the narrator lie to his daughter, and how does he justify it? Do you think she will ask him the same
julsineya [31]
1. The narrator's nine-year-old daughter, knowing that her father writes war stories, asks him if he has ever killed anyone. The narrator says no but resolves to tell her the truth when she is grown (so yes she might ask the same question when she is older.)
2. because he wants his writing to be heard.
3. because it was his thing to kill anyone he saw, so his body reacted way before he has time to think whether or not he should kill or not. I probably would’ve done the same.
4. he focuses on the deaths because those thoughts aren’t easy to go away.

Student drivers are required to keep a log of their supervised driving hours. However, not all students are diligent in their record-keeping.

The transition that should be used to combine these sentences is the following one: however. This adverb is used to introduce a statement that contrasts with or appears to contradict something that has been previously said.  In this case, you are saying that student drivers should keep a written record of their supervised driving hours yet you are also stating that not all of them do it thoroughly and well.
