Answer: D) They wish the speaker would choose a more reliable profession.

Explanation: In the given excerpt from "Binding Memories" we can see that the parents are described as being worried that the speaker's business would fail.

Read the claim from Dan DeLuca's editorial "Dylan's Nobel Prize Settles Debate: Rock Lyrics Are Poetry."
bija089 [108]

Answer: "Salman Rushdie, a Nobel candidate himself, called Dylan ‘the brilliant inheritor of the bardic tradition.’"

Explanation:

This excerpt is the one who is supporting the claim that rock lyrics are poetry because it is connecting music with lyrics and the writer's abilities to express himself through his music.

Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016 although he is a well-known musician, not a writer. His lyrics are considered poetry and in this excerpt, he is connected with bardic tradition which is referring to eighteenth-century writers that were located in Ireland and Scotland. They were also reciters of poetry while playing instruments such as lyre and harp.
