Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz. TERI SCHULTZ: Miep Gies said she

did not like being called a hero. Yet, she risked her life many times over to help the Frank family during the two years they hid from the Nazis in a secret annex built into the Trading Company office in Amsterdam where she'd worked for Otto Frank almost a decade. Providing refuge to Jews, she noted later, carried a punishment of at least six months in a concentration camp. Still, the Austrian-born Dutch woman, knighted by the governments of Germany and the Netherlands, recipient of a medal from Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, always insisted she had done nothing extraordinary. Which answer best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt? After the war, Miep Gies received many honors for her attempts to save the Frank family. Miep Gies provided refuge to a Jewish family, even though she could have been punished. Although Miep Gies never considered herself a hero; after the war, many other people did. Miep Gies was knighted by two governments and received a medal from Yad Vashem.

The answer that best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt is Although Miep Gies never considered herself a hero; after the war, many other people did.  

This excerpt describes some details about how Miep Gies helped Jews to hide from the Nazi movement and how she never saw her action as anything extraordinary which re-enforce the idea that she never considered herself a hero.

We don't have any other elements of information in this excerpt to select the other options as the correct answer.

Explain the relationship between the 5th and 6th amendment and miranda v. Arizona .Cite evidence from the text in your response.
julsineya [31]
I only know a little bit about it, so the fifth amendment is the right to remain silent, Miranda rights and double jeopardy. while the six amendment it right to a speedy trial with jury for criminal cases. In that case Miranda was accused of kidnapping and raping an 18 year old, they took him in without telling him his rights which means that he did not know he could remain silent, they made him talk but since they did not tell him his civil rights he won the case. Which created the Miranda rights. Now double jeopardy means that they can't accuse him of the same crime. That's all I know and I hope this helps a little, I can't cite anything cause I got this off my government teacher.
