PLEASE HELP!!!

I had not heard the speech of America, smelled the grass and trees and sewage, seen its hills and water, its color and quality of light. I knew the changes only from books and newspapers.

What is the purpose of the description in this passage from Travels with Charley?

A.He is showing that America is a beautiful country.
B.He is showing that the country has changed since he has last explored it.
C.He is showing that he has not traveled in a long time.
D.He is showing that America has many unusual sights.

Answer:

C.He is showing that he has not traveled in a long time.

Step-by-step explanation:

By stating that "I knew the changes only from books and newspapers", we know that the character hasn't gone to different areas in America in the recent years. He might not have left town for quite a long time.
