Answer:
The quotation that most effectively expresses the concept that Black Hawk is brave and has done his duty to his nation is:
B. "But he can stand torture, and is not afraid of death. He is no coward. Black Hawk is an Indian."
Explanation:
The quotes in the attachment belong to Black Hawk's Surrender Speech, which he gave in 1832. Black Hawk (1767-1838) was leader and war chief of the Sauk Native American tribe.
<u>Among the options given, letter B is the one that most effectively expresses the concept that Black Hawk is brave and has done his duty to his nation. Not being afraid of torture and death is not something just anyone can say about themselves. It takes a lot of courage and a deep sense of honor to withstand torture and to face death. When he says he is an Indian, he shows his care for his nation, for his tribe.</u>
The other options focus on the suffering brought by the white man's violence and cheating.
