Willa Cather uses two instances of dialogue in the excerpts from “A Wagner Matinée.” She questioned me absently about various changes in the city, but she was chiefly concerned that she had forgotten to leave instructions about feeding half-skimmed milk to a certain weakling calf, "Old Maggie's calf, you know, Clark," she explained, evidently having forgotten how long I had been away.

She burst into tears and sobbed pleadingly, "I don't want to go, Clark, I don't want to go!"

Which statement BEST explains how the author’s use of dialogue impacts the reader?

A
The two instances of dialogue make the reader recognize the Aunt's memory loss and appreciation for music.

B
The two instances of dialogue make the reader sympathize for the elderly woman's mental and physical fragility.

C
The two instances of dialogue make the reader feel sad for the Aunt and her inability to permanently leave her homestead.

D
The two instances of dialogue make the reader appreciate the Aunt's hardships growing old on a farm and away from city life.
