Answer:

The first and third is correct. The second and last are incorrect.

Explanation:

Simplified - Colons are used to introduce a second sentence clarifying the first.

BTW, you aren't aloud to post test questions on here, just sayin'.

Read the excerpts from The Namesake.
Excerpt 1: He is afraid to be Nikhil, someone he doesn’t know. Who doesn’t know him. His parents tell him that they each have two names, too, as do all their Bengali friends in America, and all their relatives in Calcutta. It’s a part of growing up, they tell him, part of being a Bengali.
Excerpt 2: It is nothing like the schooling Gogol’s parents have known, fountain pens and polished black shoes and notebooks and good names and sir or madam at a tender age. Here the only official ritual is pledging allegiance first thing in the morning to the American flag.

C. Gogol’s fear of attending American school conflicts with his parents’ excitement about the new experiences he will have.
D. Gogol’s wish to return to India where his relatives live conflicts with his parents’ wishes to start a new life in America.

Nancy took a breath and gathered her thoughts. She imagined that passing through the gray-zone door into Level 4 was like a spacewalk, except that instead of going into outer space, you went into inner space, which was full of the pressure of life trying to get inside your suit.
