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.

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ day. What does that title mean to you? Why do you think it is no longer called Columbus Day?
vekshin1

Answer:

Columbus enslaved Native Americans, and did other horrible acts. What he did used to be ignored on Columbus day, but now it is a day of celebrations of Native Americans’ history and heritage, which may include cultural events, vigils to mark the genocide, and healing gatherings. The name was changed so a man who raped, enslaved, and spread infections to innocent people is not celebrated; Christopher Columbus should not be seen as a good person.
