Esperanza looked down at Silvia's dirty hands. Silvia grinned up at her and Esperanza's first thought was to pull her hand away

and wash it as soon as possible. Then she remembered Mama's kindness to the peasant girl on the train - and her disappointment in Esperanza. She didn't want Silvia to start crying if she were to pull away. She looked around at the dusty camp and thought that it must be hard to stay clean in such a place. She squeezed Silvia's hand and said, "I have a best friend, too. Her name is Marisol and she lives in Aguascalientes."
—Esperanza Rising,
Pam Muñoz Ryan

She thinks Marisol would be disappointed if she let go.
She knows she can wash her hand soon.
She does not want to disappoint her mother.
She wants Silvia to feel comfortable.

Answer:

I believe the answer is C, she doesn't want to disappoint her mother.

Explanation:

The narrator makes it clear that Esperanza thinks Silvia is disgusting, but when Esperanza thinks back to the conversation she had with her mother and decides against pulling away, it's directly stated in the text that she chooses to hold on instead because<em> </em>her mother is already disappointed in her. (sorry if this is incorrect)

Which verb mood would work best for expressing a wish that is unlikely to come true?
noname [10]
The subjunctive mood is the best.

The subjunctive is rarely used in colloquial English. Totally irrelevant information, but... it is a relic from Latin, where there are many uses for a subjunctive. There is even a special conditional using the subjunctive mood that expresses the exact circumstances you described, which is usually called future less vivid.
