Read the following passage from a personal narrative:
Dad must hate it when his clients ask about the family.
"'And what about Rob Junior? Following in Dad's
footsteps?" Sometimes I think it might almost be worth it
to go to law school - not to pursue a career in law but just
to escape Dad's judgmental stares and disappointed sighs.
Which is the most accurate analysis of the two topics in this story?
O A. The speaker admires his father but finds hope for the future by
following his own calling.
OB. The pressure the speaker feels to further his education creates
tension in his home.
O C. The family supports one another in hard times, but the speaker
feels smothered.
OD. The speaker's sense of responsibility prevents him from pursuing
his dream.

A. is automatically out because there wasn't anything about the speaker following his calling. C. is not it because it didn't mention anything about the family supporting each other in hard times. D. is incorrect because the text doesn't have anything in it about the speaker pursuing his dream, so the answer must be B.

Answer: B, The pressure the speaker feels to further his education creates tension in his home.

Explanation:

The speaker says he is considering to go to law school, not to further his education, but just to stop his dad from criticizing him. This shows that he does not hope to follow his own calling (a) and it never referred to the family supporting each other (c) and he is not doing it to be responsible, just to avoid his dad's criticism.
