Based on this excerpt from nick hornby's fever pitch, which sentence best captures the author's childhood opinion of his father? my father tried again with the football that september, and he must have been amazed when i said yes. i had never before said yes to any suggestion of his, although i rarely said no either. i just smiled politely and made a noise intended to express interest but no commitment, a maddening trait i think i invented especially for that time in my life but which has somehow remained with me ever since. for two or three years he had been trying to take me to the theatre; every time he asked i simply shrugged and grinned idiotically, with the result that eventually dad would get angry and tell me to forget it, which was what i wanted him to say. and it wasn't just shakespeare, either: i was equally suspicious of rugby matches and cricket matches and boat trips and days out to silverstone and longleat. i didn't want to do anything at all. none of this was intended to punish my father for his absence: i really thought that i would be happy to go anywhere with him, apart from every single place he could think of.

Ответ:
C. The author could not relate to his father initially because they had different opinions and tastes.
Explanation:
The narrator says in his text that his father called him to various places and the narrator, although he did not refuse the invitation, made it clear that he did not feel like going to those places, but the narrator also says that he would love to go out with his father to places other than the places his father suggested.
The part of the text that makes this clear is: "I didn't want to do anything at all. None of this was intended to punish my father for his absence: I really thought that I would be happy to go anywhere with him, apart from every single place he could think of."
