Hi!

The answer to your question is option C. The narrator's mother is attempting to identify what her son ate.

Explanation:

To find this answer, you first have to look at the clues the text is giving you.

The first one is that the narrator points out that the mothers were bending down, lowering their faces, and squinting, so from this we can infer they were very interested in talking a look at something in particular. Then, the narrator adds that the mother was beninning to I.D, in this context meaning identify, evidence of oral contact with something. As we know, when we say something is oral we imply that it's something related to the mouth, so therefore we can imply that the answer has to be option C.
