One theme in this excerpt from Isaac Asimov’s “The Fun They Had” is remembering the past. Which sentence in the excerpt best reflects this theme?
Margie went into the schoolroom. It was right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular hours.
The screen was lit up, and it said: "Today's arithmetic lesson is on the addition of proper fractions. Please insert yesterday's homework in the proper slot."

Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about the old schools they had when her grandfather's grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the homework and talk about it.

And the teachers were people. . . .

The mechanical teacher was flashing on the screen: “When we add the fractions ½ and ¼—”
Margie was thinking about how the kids must have loved it in the old days. She was thinking about the fun they had.

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.
