In the narrative <em>"Does My Head Look Big in This?"</em> by Randa Abdel-Fattah, the narrative tone reveals a unique perspective: The narrator’s frustration helps readers understand what it is like to be a teenager.
In the story, the narrator, Amal, who decides to wear the hijab full-time, clearly states how frustrated she feels with society's expectation. Phrases like <em>"I'm </em><em>sick of obsessing</em><em> about my body, what guys are going to think about my cleavage and calves and shoulder-to-hip ratio"</em> and <em>"I am really </em><em>sick of worrying</em><em> what people are going to think if I put on a few pounds or have a pimple." </em>are clear examples of the stress teenager go through in highschool, specially girls (and even more so if they have different traditions from the other girls, like Amal with her hijab.)

C. The author likens joy to sunshine to show how positive feelings can overcome dreariness.
Explanation:
This is a very common metaphor in literature: Sunshine is like an almighty force that can overcome pretty much anything.
In this case, Hector's joy is compared to sunshine, and there's no literal sunshine actually involved. Regardless, the figurative brightness and warmth of Hector's positive attitude is told to be powerful enough to overcome the dreariness (likened to gray skies and rain) that those around him may be going through.
The answer is D because it is the only answer choice that actually points out Hector's attitude as being a sunshine that overcomes the dreariness in others' moods.
