Which of the following best describes how the author's perspective on her disability has evolved
over time?
A As a child the author resented her disability, but
over time she came to regard it as an important
part of herself that has shaped how she sees the
world.
B As a child the author didn't notice any difference
between herself and able-bodied children until
she learned to recognize discrimination against
disabilities.
C The author used to think of her disability as a
punishment, but now she understands that it is a
unique way of experiencing the world.
D The author used to see her disability as
something that could be removed with a
"magical cure," but now she regards it as
permanent and unchanging.

i would say c, admiration because the narrator related to the main character and she, too, once felt ashamed about her culture and wished to be an american girl to impress a boy. she felt admiration because her mom prepared her favorite foods when her and robert's (the guy she liked) family all came together and had a family reunion.
