Yea I’ve read it what’s your question about the book?
Here's the remaining text that forms the question;
"Sonia sat down in the guidance counselor's office, ready to explain her
future. She was going to be a writer, she announced. All she had to do was finish high school, go to college, and then get a job of some kind something that would give her a source of income. Then, she continued, on the weekends, except for those weekends when she had soccer practice (because there was no chance she was giving that up), and as long as her friends didn't invite her to go out partying, she would write the great American novel. As Sonia finished triumphantly and looked up for approval, the guidance counselor frowned."
Answer:
<u>D. Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer.</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Note the statement, <em>"Sonia looked up for approval," </em>meaning, she wanted the guidance counselor to accept her supposed plans for the future. So, we could conclude that the plot of the story is mainly focused on Sonia's plans for the future, and is thus best developed by the statement, <em>"Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer."</em>
Explanation:
They gave tongue to interesting thoughts of my own soul, which had frequently flashed through my mind, and died away for want of utterance. The moral which I gained from the dialogue was the power of truth over the conscience of even a slaveholder. What I got from Sheridan was a bold denunciation of slavery, and a powerful vindication of human rights. The reading of these documents enabled me to utter my thoughts, and to meet the arguments brought forward to sustain slavery; but while they relieved me of one difficulty, they brought on another even more painful than the one of which I was relieved. The more I read, the more I was led to abhor and detest my enslavers.
In essence, what Douglass learned from the text was that Master Auld was right when he warned his wife about education and slavery.... the way that literacy served to make slaves non compliant.
