Explanation:

Q7

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the tone contribution. Option A: Highlighting transformation and pride matches a positive, empowering tone from language showing growth. Option B: "lasting for years" is about duration, not tone. Option C: "deep sadness" is negative, not matching. Option D: "school’s disappointment" is negative, not matching. So A is correct.

We need a sentence showing Rudyard inspired others. Option A: Bully retreating is about the bully, not inspiration. Option B: A quote, not showing inspiration to others. Option C: Younger boys’ gratitude shows they were inspired by Rudyard. Option D: A statement about standing up, not showing inspiration to others. So C is correct.

Answer:

A. highlighting Rudyard’s transformation and growing pride
