The correct answer would be #2 “There are many flashbacks in the story to when Thomas and Victor were young and close.” I just took the test and got it correct. :)

The correct answer is C.

In "This Is What It Means To Say Pheonix Arisona" Victor and Thomas used to be close friends when they were kids, but have drifted away. After Victor's dad passes away, Thomas offers to take him to pick up his father's truck.

During the journey, Victor remembers different stories from where they were young. These memories, in which the two boys were close, are vey different from their current situation. They awkwardly sit in silence, and do not talk much until Thomas tells Victor about the time his father found him outside the reserve.

These flashbacks are used as a way to contrast their lost friendship with their present relationship.
