Explanation:
Marlen Suyapa Bodden's "The Wedding Gift," tells the story of how a woman named Clarissa and her 'wedding gift slave "Sarah" who turned out to be her half-sister, a product of their father's secret sexual affair with his slave Emmeline. This story delves into the issue of slavery in the American South, the positions of slaves and their hardships and the issue of class/ belonging among different races, and also especially on the 'inferiority' of the female gender compared to the males.
<u>One dominant issue in the story is that of slavery</u>. This is seen in the lives, the different lives of the two sisters Clarissa and Sarah. While Clarissa, as a white woman, is an accepted daughter of Allen and have full access to her father's world, Sarah, on the other hand, is just a small slave girl who is passed on like a piece of property. She was given by Allen to Clarissa as a wedding gift, and when her husband divorced her, she remained a part of Clarissa's 'belongings' that she takes along with her wherever her life leads.

The first two paragraphs show that even though she lost both parents at an early age, Jane Fairfax was raised with great joy and love. With that, we can say that option A is the correct answer.
The text you showed doesn't have the first two paragraphs, with the first 14 lines, but we can see that this text is a part of the book "Emma" written by Jane Austen.
Thus, when reading the first paragraphs of this passage, we can see that:
- The passage is featuring Miss Jane Fairfax.
- Her parents died when she was a little child and she was raised with her aunt, Mrs. Bates, who is very young.
- Although we are used to sad stories, the Jane Fairfax story is not like that.
- That's because the first paragraphs show how she was a very happy child in her aunt's care.
- That's because Jane's aunt loves her so much and raised her with great care and affection.
In this case, we can summarize these paragraphs, showing that despite losing her parents at a very young age, Jane was raised with joy, love, and affection, as option A shows.
