The correct answer is D. The flip phone became obsolete as newer technology arrived on the market.
Explanation:
Context clues are hints, words in a sentence provide about the meaning of an unknown or difficult word and that help the reader to understand the word without looking at it in a dictionary or using other strategies. In this case, the word "obsolete" which means "no longer used" or "out-of-date" is more clearly defined through context clues in the last sentence "The flip phone became obsolete as newer technology arrived on the market" because this suggests an object becomes "obsolete" when there is new technology and therefore the object is no longer use which is almost the same that the definition of the word.

These lines reveal Silas as a quiter and unfaithful, careless and with a false pride.
Explanation:
The plot is supported as he is found asleep beside the stove, he comes back when he needs money for tobacco in the winter when Warren and Mary don't need the help, but when they do need help Silas leaves, so Warren is done, disappointed, frustrated, Silas is taking advantage of him, and Warren doesn't care if he's young or old-he didn't do his job and that's all that matters.
Mary doesn't want to hurt Silas' feelings, but Warren knows that Silas needs to learn a lesson, and Mary and Warren don't just have the extra money to give Silas.
