    C. De Shawn's current policy will cover his family for an adequate period of time at his current salary.

    Explanation:

    De Shawn is 38 year old at the moment with three kids all young. On the other hand, the face value is good and covers the family for an adequate period of time. Given his current salary and retirement age that he is planning to retire on, it looks appropriate for De Shawn to take up this policy. The other provided options like option A suggesting buying whole life policy or option B suggesting De Shawn has money for 20-year endowment investment can be considered due to the $45,000 a year salary limitation and the current policy does cover his family for a good time as well.
