The correct answer is: D.) It represents the moment that Douglass understood the value of education for his future.

Indeed, Douglass was more or less twelve years old when he was taught to read and write by his white mistress, Mrs. Sophia Auld. Her husband very cleverly surmised that teaching slaves to read would make them desire freedom from slavery and convinced his wife that it was dangerous for the institution of slavery to teach slaves to read.

This is definitely a complicating incident in the autobiography of Frederick Douglass since it hindered his efforts to educate himself and rise above his forced servitude. However, he was able to actually overcome such obstacle by ingenuity and perseverance and as he states, this revelation provided him with the greatest lesson in his road to freedom.

Which of the following quotations from the passage is an analogy?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

B. "Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you wanna do with your life: the most interesting people I know didn't at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives; some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't"

Explanation:

Option B is the quotation from the passage that is an analogy.

Analogy refers to the comparison of two things in order to give an explanation or make a point by showing their similarities. Sometimes, analogy compares to show differences of two things. It does so by explaining one thing in terms of another.

From Option B, we will discover that the quotation is an analogy because it compares the people at age 22 and the people at age 40. It reveals that the people at age 22 don't even known what they want in life and the same thing with some of the people at age 40. It compares by highlighting what makes the two set of people alike.
