The exact words she used in her text are: <em>"I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbor was."</em>
That is why she thinks that her education was essential to fiend her way, Her education gave her knowledge, and most importantly, it gave her direction.

<h3>What is a Summary?</h3>
This refers to the concise representation of the main points of a text without the use of bias.
Hence, we can see that from the complete text, we can see that there is the narration of the words of a person, and the best summary that captures the details is option A.
Shakespeare's view of the treatment of the English by the inhabitants of the new world can be seen in "The tempest" through the relationship between Prospero and Calibam.
Calibam represents the inhabitants of the new world and shows how the English saw them in a rude, wild, ignorant and violent way. Shakespeare shows that Calibam is a lost creature that needs to be dominated, exploited and deceived by a European, who is someone cultured, civilized with divine powers, since he knows God. This European is Prospero who represents all the power and influence that Europe believes he had in relation to Native Americans.
Prospero imposes his will on the basis of intelligence and the ability to dominate different cultures and peoples.
