Read the excerpt from “How I Learned English.”

I fell back,
Dazed, clutching my brow,
Groaning, “Oh my shin, oh my shin,”
And everybody peeled away from me
And dropped from laughter, and there we were,
All of us writhing on the ground for one reason
Or another.

A.gives information about what the speaker thinks and feels.
B.adds to the idea that the speaker feels like an outsider.
C.changes the speaker’s struggle to fit in with the other boys.

Answer:

I believe it is :

C. changes the speaker’s struggle to fit in with the other boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

This one makes the most sense, because before he was having trouble fitting here, but in this moment he is not new to the cii of try or is having a difficult time trying to understand or relate, they are all just laughing and that is a way that brings them together because they all understand and relate to laughter!
