b. it makes the story sound more like a history lesson.
c. it shows that adults are not important in maasai culture.
d. it makes the story confusing for the reader.

Explanation:

• Option a: A non - adult (like a child) narrator's perspective often emphasizes wonder, new experiences, and exploration, so the story focuses on adventure and discovery.
• Option b: A history - lesson - like tone is more associated with an adult, informed, and didactic perspective, not a non - adult one.
• Option c: The choice of narrator's perspective doesn't imply adults are unimportant in the culture; it's about narrative focus, not cultural hierarchy.
• Option d: A non - adult perspective can be engaging and clear in showing a fresh view, not necessarily confusing.

Answer:

a. It makes the story focus more on adventure and discovery.
