Let's reconstruct this sentence.
"Everyone I know complain" doesn't make much sense.
Popping an "s" on the end of "complain" might do the trick, lets try!
"Everyone I know complains" ah, there we go. Much smoother.
Next section!
"Complains because these days backpacks weigh a ton."
Though this may sound correct, it is still quite a bunch. Let's fix that.
Rearranging your words might work.
Maybe in the section that says "Complains because these days" we can change that to "Complains these days because" Much smoother, and easier to read.
We have so far is: "Everyone I know complains these days because"
Yay, let's continue.
The remaining of the sentence is fine so we can put it on the end of our freshly constructed sentence.
Our final sentence should be:
"Everyone I know complains these days because backpacks weigh a ton."
Hello there!
The question states which quote represents her independence let's analyze each quote.
A)“Habitually obedient to John, I came up to his chair: he spent some three minutes in thrusting out his tongue at me as far as he could without damaging the roots…” This quote is incorrect because it says she is obedient to John.
B)“You ought to be aware, Miss, that you are under obligations to Mrs. Reed: she keeps you: if she were to turn you off, you would have to go to the poorhouse.” This quote is incorrect because it says that she is under obligations of Mrs. Reed.
C) “What do I want? A new place, in a new house, amongst new faces, under new circumstances…” This is correct because she is talking about what she wants.
D)I had had no communication by letter or message with the outer world: school-rules, school-duties, school-habits and notions, and voices, and faces, and phrases, and costumes, and preferences, and antipathies—such was what I knew of existence. This is incorrect because it says she has no communication with the outside world therefore not independent.
In conclusion the answer is C! Good luck!
Could you please take a better picture! It’s very very blurry and not clear.

This poem focuses on black women's sacrifices to ensure their children's educations. It mainly celebrates the women of her mothers' era, who was a maid and wife to a failed sharecropper. The figurative language she uses highlights their strength and bravery they held and used, to try and make their kids' lives better so they could hold better opportunities.
