What evidence from the passage best supports the inference that the teenaged Alvarez just wants to fit into American culture?

A. “New York,” I told my classmates. After all, I had been born blocks away at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital.

B. “From the Caribbean,” I answered vaguely, for if I specified, no one was quite sure on what continent our island was located.

C. I had made mouths drop one day by rattling off my full name, which, according to Dominican custom, included my middle names, Mother’s and Father’s surnames for four generations back.

D. They were just being curious, I knew, but I burned with shame whenever they singled me out as a “foreigner,” a rare, exotic friend.
