Questions below are based on Bolaji Abdullahi's "Sweet Sixteen"
It may be argued that Chapter Two is titled, "The Drive" particularly because...?
of the social disparity between the rich and the poor which is unlikely to end
Aliya's father drove her home from the boarding house
it indicates the realities and experiences shared during Mr Bello's drive with Aliya
it was the best atmosphere for Mr Bello to scold Aliya for her wrongdoings
Explanation
Readers must see through the meanings of words and titles beyond their ordinarily usage where necessary. Aliya's drive home by Mr Bello is relevant not because of the drive but especially because Mr Bello used the opportunity of the informal atmosphere to educate his daughter about sexual maturity and the realities of life pictured by the hawking girls and their aspiration to be great in life.
