Answer:

B. "Regardless of the challenges they faced, they had the character to choose contribution over complaint." (Paragraph 4)

C. "One of my clients came to this country from Africa in his late teens, barely spoke the language, drove a cab while working his way through college, and is now the president of a large technology services firm." (Paragraph 6)

Explanation:

This question is related to the article "life isn't fair - deal with it". In this article the author shows how the world is filled with people who were put back and thrown into a bad and derogatory reality, but managed to overcome these problems through individual desire and determination.

For this, the author shows that the first step that these people took, towards success, was to look for ways to contribute to their life and to seek changes in the place of complaining. To reinforce this idea, the author shows an example of a person he knows, a student, who managed to get out of a disadvantageous situation and achieve success in his life, through effort and hard work.

What can I do now, that it is too late?' is one of the main questions that she tries to solve in her narrative. It creates a deep impact on the reader,because the story is narrated from a personal stance, from a more intimate point of view, and it allows the reader to create a deeper connection with the story and the way that the mother of five more children would have done things differently.
