Answer:
To honor Miep Gies and share her history with the audience.
Explanation:
Anne Frank was a young teenage Jewish girl who became known for her diary that she wrote during her life in hiding with her family. The Jewish discrimination and the eventual Holocaust took a tragic turn on her and her family's life, which would become one of the largest genocide in the world's history.
In the given excerpt, the author Teri Schultz talks about the lesser-known heroine of the whole debacle, Miep Gies, who helped the Franks and supplied them with necessities as much as she can. This particular excerpt from the book also shows how Miep Gies deserves to be honored and that she also is part of the whole story. Therefore, her history must be shared with others, and how she is much a part of the story of Anne.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
Answer:
B. “the charges were laughable” (Paragraph 20)
Explanation:
Thes question refers to the article "A Child Of Slavery Who Thought A Generation" which tells the story of Anna Cooper.
She was, amongst other things, a principal and a teacher in first public high school for black students. Her work was amazing and very inspirational, which obviously bothered some people which led to a scandal ginned up against her.
The word "ginned up" means that something was started, agitated, increased or generated in a dubious manner and with dishonest purpose. This means that accusations were made only to throw dirt on her, without any factual evidence.
The sentence that best supports this is "the charges were laughable".
Although many prominent people stood in her defence, Cooper had to resign her principal's post due to the scandal and public pressure.
