Explanation:

In A Raisin in the Sun, Ruth's life is centered around her family and the physical space (the apartment, which represents the "walls that surround her") that they share. While heritage (A) is a broader cultural concept not emphasized as home for her, earning a living (B) is more about work, and the city (C) is too vague.
