Answer:

C. Nola became the sole person that she gives and receives love from.

Explanation:

Joyce Carol Oates's short story Shopping deals with the mother-daughter relationship between Mrs. Dietrich and her daughter Nola. Despite the age difference and the divorce issue, Mrs. Dietrich seemed unable to really understand to play the role of a mother in her relationship and zeal to keep her daughter with her. She acts more like a friends than a mother, which seemed to also affect Nola to the extent that she feels far from her own mother.

The divorce of the Dietrichs led to Nola being the only receiver and giver of love to her mother Mrs. Dietrich. She feels scared that Nola will love someone else and leave her or that she will not like her own mother anymore. Considering that she is a teenage girl, she would want to have a parent who would listen and give advice. But rather than get that person, she got a friend in her mother who seems intent on looking her like a child and not as the adult she has become. This affects her relationship badly with her own mother, for Mrs. Dietrich treated Nola as her only source and receiver of love, and not treat her like a daughter. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
