"I went to my room and sat on my bed, staring at the little white envelope that my dad had given me the night
before. It had seemed so incongruous then, just a silly note my dad had
passed to me while I was trying to fall asleep. But now it seemed more
important, in a way. He was on a crazy adventure-what if he didn't come
back? This was a possibility I had not considered at all in the months and
years leading up to his launch, but now it hit me in a very real way." Why
might the author have used the verb "hit" here?
A. to imply that Jason should have treated his dad with more kindness in the months
and years leading up to the launch
B. to hint that Jason's dad is unlikely to return from his "crazy adventure"
C. to convey the force and suddenness of Jason's realization that his dad might not
come back
D. to suggest that Jason slaps his hand on his forehead when he realizes that his dad
may not come back

Which excerpt from chapter 3 of the strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde illustrates a character vs. character conflict? hosts loved to detain the dry lawyer, when the light-hearted and loose-tongued had already their foot on the threshold; they liked to sit a while in his unobtrusive company. the large handsome face of dr. jekyll grew pale to the very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes. “i do not care to hear more,” said he. “this is a matter i thought we had agreed to drop.” “my good utterson,” said the doctor, “this is very good of you, this is downright good of you, and i cannot find words to you in. i believe you fully; i would trust you before any man alive, ay, before myself.” but i do sincerely take a great, a very great interest in that young man; and if i am taken away, utterson, i wish you to promise me that you will bear with him and get his rights for him.”
