Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: The passage doesn't present the grandfather as a fear example. Eliminate.
• Option B: The focus isn't on gratitude for hard work. Eliminate.
• Option C: The author's desire to have his kids see his "footprint" (legacy) through his novels, similar to continuing a legacy, fits.
• Option D: The paragraph is about legacy, not just explaining the relationship. Eliminate.

Answer:

C. by showing how the author wants to continue his grandfather’s legacy
