Read the two passages from A Raisin in the Sun. Passage 1:

RUTH: Why don't you answer the door, man?

WALTER (suddenly bounding across the floor to embrace her): 'Cause sometimes it hard to let the future begin! (Stooping down in her face.)

I got wings! You got wings!

All God's children got wings!

He crosses to the door and throws it open. Standing there is a very slight little man in a not-too-prosperous business suit and with haunted frightened eyes and a hat pulled down tightly, brim up, around his forehead. . . . WALTER leans deep in the man's face, still in his jubilance.

When I get to heaven gonna put on my wings,

Gonna fly all over God's heaven . . .

Passage 2:

WALTER (turning madly, as though he is looking for WILLY in the very room): Willy! . . . Willy . . . don't do it . . . Please don't do it . . . Man, not with that money . . . Man, please, not with that money . . . Oh, God . . . Don't let it be true . . . (He is wandering around, crying out for WILLY and looking for him or perhaps for help from God.) Man . . . I trusted you . . . Man, I put my life in your hands . . . (He starts to crumple down on the floor as RUTH just covers her face in horror. MAMA opens the door and comes into the room, with BENEATHA behind her.) Man . . . (He starts to pound the floor with his fists, sobbing wildly.) THAT MONEY IS MADE OUT OF MY FATHER'S FLESH—

Which statement best compares the two passages?

A. The first passage hints that Walter faces his fear, and the second passage indicates that he avoids it.
B. The first passage hints that Ruth cannot understand Walter, and the second passage confirms it.
C. Both passages show that Walter has an optimistic outlook on life.
