B
Osvaldo knows a lot of useful information.
C
Steve usually talks to boys who are his age.
D
Steve and Osvaldo have known each other for a long time.
Explanation
Steve points out that Osvaldo is about his age, then says they talk about ordinary subjects such as playing ball, the weather, and the neighborhood. This supports the idea that Steve usually talks to boys his age; the excerpt does not say their parents know each other or that the boys have known each other for a long time.
