Answer:
The allusion in this passage and its interpretation is "Thousands are ushered into the world"; although some slaves have white fathers, they are still lineal descendants of Ham and should remain slaves.

Answer:
A). I was/am the only daughter and only a daughter. Being an only daughter in a family of six sons forced me by circumstance to spend a lot of time by myself because my brothers felt it beneath them to play with a girl in public. <u>She believes that she may not be considered as valuable as a son.</u>
Explanation:
As per the question, option A displays the inference that would be most appropriately supported by the given passage as it reveals the idea that not only surrounds the entire passage but also unifies it. The descriptions like 'being an only daughter...forced me by circumstance to spend time by myself' and 'my brothers felt it beneath them to play with a girl in public' makes the readers deduce that the authoress probably had a belief that she would not be regarded as of similar value and position as of a son. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
