Read the excerpt from This Land Was Made for You and Me.

Just after New Year’s Day in 1940, Woody set off on one of his unannounced road trips. He left his wife and three kids in a shack in Texas and headed for New York City. It was a long, cold trip in the dead of winter, and every time he stopped in a diner he heard Irving Berlin’s lush, sentimental song, “God Bless America,” on the jukebox. It was exactly the kind of song Woody couldn’t stand, romanticizing America, telling people not to worry, that God would take care of everything.

The author illustrates the connection between Guthrie’s life and his music by explaining that

Guthrie was not motivated to write music about his family or Texas.
the song "God Bless America" convinced Guthrie that his family would be fine without him.
the message Guthrie heard in "God Bless America" contrasted with what he was going through.
Guthrie did not worry about things and did not write songs about the concept of worry.

From the excerpt of This Land Was Made for You and Me, Woody Guthrie and his connection with music are explained based on the message delivered by the song, "God Bless America," which contrasted his present thoughts. Thus, option C is correct.

Woody Guthrie was the songwriter and singer who wrote the song, This Land Is Your Land in contrast to Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America,” in a simple tone portraying the American landscape.

He wanted to show that a lot of the Americans were not happy and feeling blessed as a contrast to that portrayed in Irving's song. He wanted the people to understand socialism and fascism.

Therefore, option C. Guthrie's situation was a contrast to Irving's song.

Had he been told of a bad air, it might have moved him somewhat; but he was ready to encounter an evil spirit on his own ground.
with commonsense, as massive and hard as blocks of granite, fastened together by stern rigidity of purpose, as with iron clamps, he followed
out his original design, probably without so much as imagining an objection to it. On the score of delicacy, or any scrupulousness which a finer
sensibility might have taught him, the Colonel, like most of his breed and generation, was impenetrable. He therefore dug his cellar, and laid the
deep foundations of his mansion, on the square of earth whence Matthew Maule, forty years before, had first swept away the fallen leaves.
