Answer:

C) A person does not have to accomplish great things to serve God.

Explanation:

These are last lines from John Milton’s (9 December 1608 – 8 November 1674) one of the most famous short poems  "When I Consider How My Light is Spent" or alternatively known as “On His Blindness”.

In the context of these lines Milton compares God with a King and contrasts Him with a lord. In these lines Milton says that God has innumerable (thousands) working at his state moving speedily from place to place (Thousands at his bidding speed). These tasks need men to have light and vision. Since God has innumerable resources he does not need every one to do an active work. Sometimes God also appoints some people on standby and work when the right time comes.

In brief, Milton being previously very active in social and political matters of the country knows that working actively for God is a good deed. But those who are physically hampered (like Milton) also serve God in waiting for their turn to accomplish a task when it is assigned.

PLEASE ANYONE WHO HAS READ THE LEAP USE THE A.C.E METHOD TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION
Archy [21]

First of all, if the story would be in chronological order, there would be no story at all. This is because the main character of the story, Anna, won't tell the narrator, her daughter, a lot about her past. "She has kept no squinted costume, no photographs, no fliers or posters from that part of her youth".

Because the narrator tells the story in the present and uses flashbacks is the reason that she can unify certain themes, such as the three times her mother saved her life because of her leaps. "I owe her my existence three times". These three leaps the narrator owes her life might be: when Anna Saves herself when she falls from the trapeze, when she falls in love with the narrator's father, and when she saves the narrator life from a fire by climbing to the room where the narrator is trapped.
