Read the excerpt from Iqbal.

The master and the mistress had a television. Sometimes at night, when we were trying to fall asleep, we could hear those strange voices in Hussain Khan's living room and see the colored lights through the rush matting at the window. Karim, always Karim, bragged that once he had sneaked up to one of the windows, and had seen almost five minutes of a cricket game.

"What's cricket?" I asked.

"Shut up, stupid!" he answered.

A. Couples are strict about bedtime hours for children in this area.

B. Late-night television shows are common in this area.

C. Cricket is a widely played sport in this area

D. Televisions are a luxury in this area.
