Answer:

Option B. Based on the lines of dialogue, it can be inferred that Jo's character  is self-reliant and strives to be a good person.

Explanation:

The excerpt shown in the question reflects how self-reliant Jo is, as she does not want to ask for money to anyone, specially her aunt. she mentions she hates to borrow money as much as her own mother, and she expresses how she is determined to get enough money to save it and use it to help her wounded father, even if it's hard or difficult. This shows that Jo does not want to depend on anyonelse but herself, and also shows her generosity and her striving to be a good person, as she does not want the money for herself but to help her father and family during a hard time.
