Well, I know that back then, girls were not allowed to act on stage. They were people who simply helped in the background, with costumes and makeup. Young boys played the roles of women in plays at that time.
Hope this helps!

A
Not correct. She could have been using references to anything. Not all her references are from literature. Southern Bitter Wormwood is a reference to the wormwood plant which is medicinal in nature and it is very bitter.
C
Maybe. But there's a better answer. It's not her personality we are drawn to although it is quite bubbly if this passage is any kind of indication. It is the joy she takes in recognizing that Beowulf likes a good drink and he wanted her to join him and she was delighted by the invitation.
D
She could have been talking about anything that engaged her. It just happened to be mostly about the classics.
B
This is the best answer. C and D are close, but it really is B that we are attracted to. We have our eyes opened to the grand people in books. More than that we feel her joy in Beowulf, her polite tea conversation with Oliver Twist, her astonishing acceptance of the meaning of Sydney Carton's statement at the end of a Tale of Two Cities.

Eloise expresses her gratitude for the housing project in many ways. She's not only grateful for the opportunity to have a house for her family but also she communicates how she fell in love with the commodities that came along with the project.

"They started a choral group and presented music and poetry programs on Sunday evenings in the social room or on the playground. On weekends, they played horseshoes and softball and other games. They had a reading club that met once a week at the Langston branch of the public library after it opened in the basement of one of the apartment buildings"
Having enjoyed various activities in the playground and being able to just walk to a library nearby, Eloise conveys the idea of how the Langston Terrace had become more than just an in-between place until they acquired their own house. The site had become a place she's fond of, a place she feels glad to have grown up in.
"For us, Langston Terrace wasn’t an in-between place. It was a growing-up place, a good growing-up place with neighbors who cared, family, friends, and a lot of fun. Life was good. Not perfect, but good."
Answer:
The Namesake has reflected history because it examines and explores the cultural aspect and differences of the past, which can be compared to the present. Literature affects history because it can often record and/or explain the past, and could ultimately change and influence other's perspectives of history.
