Which statement about the family after the event is accurate?

• A. They remained distant.
• B. They reconciled immediately.
• C. They appeared to be getting back together for about a week.
• D. They planned to move abroad.

Answer: (C)

After the crash, the story shows the family pulling together in the face of the crisis. The parents set aside their issues long enough to present a united front for Brian, giving the sense that they’re trying to repair their family bonds, at least for a short period. The impression is that this is a temporary renewal of togetherness—about a week—rather than a lasting reconciliation. The other options don’t fit because the text doesn’t depict a permanent change with them remaining distant, it doesn’t show an immediate, full reconciliation, and there’s no indication they planned to move abroad. The moment captured is a brief, hopeful reassembly of the family in the wake of the event.
