What does the example of the Macdonald family do in the emotional logic of the story?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It creates comparison with father's silent affection by showing open expression of love

The governing concept is literary contrast. The Macdonald family is shown as cheerful and openly affectionate, giving Kezia an example of a father who expresses warmth in an easily visible way. This comparison helps explain why she finds her own father difficult to read: his affection is quieter and mixed with strictness. The Macdonalds do not replace him or solve the pin-cushion misunderstanding. Option C is correct because their role is comparative; they make the difference between open expression and silent affection clearer. Options A, B and D assign them functions the story does not give them.
