How does author Mackenzie Carro characterize the 1950s and 60s era?

Which two details best show how Klaus Shubert’s experience in the historical setting develops the text’s theme.

from Inge’s Wall

The great war came to an end in 1945, and Germany was divided. People in the East, where life was restrictive, fled in great numbers to the freedom they found in the West. To stop this, the government of the East built a wall in 1961.

One morning, when Klaus Schubert was 11 years old, he passed cement trucks and workers unloading steel rods and barbed wire as he walked to school. He returned hours later to find his view of the buildings, greenery, and other things he had seen earlier swallowed up by the sour-smelling cement and the snarling barbed wire. And worse, the people he had known were gone—friends and family alike. The government had said the wall was for the protection of the people on Klaus's side. But what had there been to fear?
That unanswered question became both an oppressive shroud over Klaus's childhood and a sinister playmate, as he often let his mind wander, imagining horrors or enemies that must have been so great that only such a great, grey, stone wall could keep them out. Then, Klaus grew into manhood, and he began to view the wall through another lens. It became an oppressor that the people in the East dared not question or appear to challenge in any way.

The grades prior to that are de moi.’ My eyes are closed; the room is silent. ‘I cannot make myself understood, now.’ I am speaking slowly and distinctly. ‘Call it something I ate.’

Paragraph Two

Noah began racing go-karts when he was just six years old. Noah has traveled to other states to race, win, and finish in the top five, an impressive accomplishment for anyone but especially for a young driver. He now races a 1934 Ford Legends Coupe, a car that weighs 1,000 pounds and goes faster than 100 miles per hour. Noah regularly competes against drivers who are three times older than he is, but he does not let that intimidate him. He explained in one news article, "I have been racing against older people all my life. When you strap on a helmet, you are no longer a 13-year-old kid, you are a racecar driver. The other drivers don't treat me like a kid. They treat me the same as the other drivers on the track." He has the nickname "Little Gator" partly because of his size and partly because of Gatorland's sponsorship over the last several years.

In paragraph 2, Noah says, "I have been racing against older people all my life. When you strap on a helmet, you are no longer a 13-year-old kid, you are a racecar driver."

What is the implicit meaning of his words?

A) I am very talented because I am able to race against adults.

B) Everyone on the racetrack is equal.

C) All racecar drivers have to wear helmets regardless of age.

D) Older racers are embarrassed to compete against a kid.
