Explanation:

Text features(like titles, captions, bullets, bold/italics, etc.) play a vital role in arranging the various information in the text effectively which assists the readers to understand it clearly and comprehensively.

In the given excerpt from 'How to prepare for a Road Trip', the author opts a hierarchical structure to present information clearly to the readers which is reflected through the use of two different sizes of bullet points. The first size of bullet is employed to detail the reader about the preparation of a car while planning a road trip('tune-up, change of oil, good condition of tires, having a spare tire, availing an emergency kit, etc.). The second size of bullets explains the readers about the items that must be included in an emergency car kit. Thus, this sequential arrangement of information helps the readers to understand it extensively. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
