    This scene develops plot of the story because:-

    Option D: This scene introduces the reader to the narrator and to the Duvitches.

    Explanation:

    "The Strangers That Came To Town" by "Ambrose Flack" is a story of the Duvitch family.

    People of Syringa Street do not treat Duvitches nicely. They consider them as untouchables and avoid them. The whole town looks down upon them and have a prejudice about them. Towards the end of the story, residents start accepting Duvitches as regular residents and understand their truth. They welcome them with respect.

    In the given lines, Duvitches are introduced in the story as they came in the truck and how people looked at them strangely with mixed emotions. So, statement D is the most apt.
