i think it's b but i would like a confirmation

The correct answer is D. Dr.

Explanation:

During citations or reference to the ideas or words of another author or resource, it is necessary to include the name of the author as well as other key information about the resource. In the case of the name of the author APA and the MLA style which are both manuals on how to publish a document recommend in case the name includes suffixes such as "Sir.", "III" or "Jr." to include them in the reference list but not during in-text citations, which means this words should not be included during the text but just at the end of it in the reference list. However, in the case of academic littles such as Ph.D. or Dr. this should be never included as these are not part of the author's name but of his education and academical background. Thus, the word that should not be included with the author name in a citation is "Dr." as this word is the title of the author but not the name of it.

Answer and Explanation:

1. A. Childhood homes always hold a special importance to people.

2.B. “Was there ever any glory there? I can remember / a few humid evenings through the crack of the back door. ” (Lines 11-12)

The speaker shows how his memory makes him reflect on the place where he lived, seeking the glory of the place, the sensations he felt and how he used to look at the landscape.

3. A. The speaker’s parents enjoyed the backyard more than the speaker did.

Although the place where the speaker lived in childhood has a special place in his memory, in addition to bringing the feeling of nostalgia and longing, he does not appear to like the yard, since he did not see much glory or things to be proud of, his parents appreciate it and seem to feel great at the place.

4. E. “My parents would be at the top of the empty hill / sitting at the rusty, wrought iron table in an orb of / orange candlelight” (Lines 15-17)

The above excerpt shows how, even in the simplicity and lack of resources of the place, the narrator's parents find time to appreciate and enjoy what the place has to offer.
