The correct answer is D. Faithful, determined, respected

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the narrator describes how her grandmother, who was a slave, recovered her freedom after they tried to sell her when her mistress died. The narrator shows the woman was "faithful" this is mentioned in "Dr. Flint told the faithful old servant that ....it was necessary she should be sold". Also, this feature is shown by the woman because, despite all the situation,  she always hoped at the end she was going to be free.

Besides this, the character can be described as "determined" because she used her cleverness and her reputation to prove she needed to be free; also, this is stated in "She was a very spirited woman." Finally, this character is "respected" because she was known by many families and she was respected by them, this is expressed in "Shame! Shame! Who is going to sell you, aunt Marthy?" that shows the people at the town respected her and wanted her to be free. This, the grandmother can be described as faithful, determined, and respected.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer: Legal and illegal flows forced the Native Americans to go to the western parts of the country.

Explanation:

In 1830, an Act of Relocation was passed that referred to five Native American tribes. And if the act itself contained principles in which there was nothing in dispute, in practice it looked different. Many of these tribes were forcibly resettled and treated inhumanely.

The president did not prohibit the use of all methods of intimidation, fraud, manipulation and murder to force the Native American population to signs a relocation agreement. Jackson further suppressed the influence of politicians who supported the Indians in any way, while addressing law enforcement officials who were not coarse enough to handle their duties.
