<p>You can view the passage from this link:

<p>I have a question on number 25. I'm confused as to why the answer could not be B) a child announcing an important realization atttained while living away from home... Choice E sounds like a reasonable answer except B in my opinion seems to be a better choice. Isn't the passage talking about the author realizing her self-importance that distinguished her and made her unique?</p>

<p>bump… lol</p>

<p>E because the description says it’s the protagonist describing her childhood experiences.</p>

<p>A child is not announcing or even talking about anything. It is the adult talking about her experiences when she was a child. Thus the answer is E.</p>

<p>That is a quick explanation. Hope it helps. If you want me to be more detailed I can. Just ask.</p>

<p>OH! WOW! ifeel stupid now lol thanks! i guess i didnt read the question carefully lol.</p>

<p>Hehe no worries, it happens to the best of us. The trick is to read the question and answer choices SLOWLY. Each word counts in the answer choices. Just one simple word could make the answer choice wrong. </p>

<p>Any other questions? :)</p>
