Answer: D. A-E, B-D and C-F

Explanation

A talks about 'my father' keeping me out of the house (related to E) so that 'my mother' could plan a surprise party. So, A-E. B talks about genes changing over time, which is related to evolution (the process by which different kinds of living organisms are believed to have developed from earlier forms during the history of the earth). So, B-D. C talks about subject 'I' and coming out of the cage. The same subject 'I' is continued in F, wanting soap and water after coming out of the dark cage. So, C-F. Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
