Answer: Option D.

Explanation:

'Daughter of Invention' is a story about a family who immigrated to America. The above mentioned excerpt provides a detail of one famous Dominican saying which states that, all it requires for a person to achieve success is being patient and keeping calm. This saying is very much similar to another famous idiom, 'Slow and steady wins the race.' Both these sayings eventually conveys the same meaning that no matter how slow the progress is, if a person is consistent and patient enough, then he can get anything done.
