Explanation:

Q8

To determine why they stop seeking shelter, we analyze the options. "There is no point with Scud missiles" makes sense in a context where Scud missiles have a wide - ranging or unpredictable impact, so seeking shelter becomes futile. The other options (the bombing stops, the war ends, the bombing moves to another part of town) are less likely as a reason for stopping to seek shelter later in the story compared to the futility with Scud missiles.

When the protagonist's father was accused of drinking wine, we look at the options. "They poured out the wine, so it wasn't found when the house was searched" is a plausible way to escape arrest as removing the evidence (the wine) would mean there is no proof of the accusation during the search. The other options (proving innocence with a Breathalyzer test, running away, talking his way out, paying off the officer) are less consistent with the context of avoiding arrest after being accused of drinking wine.

For the main character and her friends' actions, "They go to a western - style café and flirt with boys" fits the idea of typical teenage acting out, especially in a context where western - style places and flirting with boys could be seen as rebellious or typical teenage behavior. The other options (going to a record store, a mall for American clothes, a Communist meeting) do not align as well with typical teenage acting out.

Answer:

A. There is no point with Scud missiles
