I think the correct answer is: They are both willing to risk their lives.  

If we understand the word "willing" as ready to do something, this means they both are ready to risk their lives. We could think that the correct answer is "They are both helpless and weak" but in the first excerpt although he seems weak, he has been able to get food for his family and escape from the gamekeepers, even hitting them with the slingshot.

What they have in common is that although they are concious that their actions can kill them they are determined to do them. In the first excerpt hunting in the woods is forbidden and if someone gets caught doing it he would be "even killed". The kid has no option but to risk his life to get some food:  "but my family had to eat one way or another."

The second excerpt refers to a pirate's slave, he has a miserable life and it could get worse. He is determined to scape or die trying, we can see that he has nothing else to loose, "I would rather die than spend another minute on that ship."

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

(a) Florida belongs to the Spanish.

Explanation:

Elisa Carbone's novel "Blood on the River" revolves around the story of a British teenager and his journey to James Town in America. The novel follows Samuel Collier and his journey by sea, going to the new settlement of Jamestown in America, which the British had conquered/ colonized.

Samuel was one of the many passengers on <em>"The Susan Constant"</em> making its way to America. Though he was a page of the ship's captain, Captain John Smith, Samuel also wanted to explore and go to the New World, that is America. But as they traveled along, the ship doesn't dock in Florida as the place was under the Spanish. And at that time, the Spanish and the British were all fighting to get more land colonized for their respective kings or empires.

Thus, the correct answer is option a.
