Question

1. how does the quote in paragraph 2, \the most that you have done has been witnessed by a few trembling, scarred, and foot - sore bondmen and women, whom you have led out of the house of bondage\ contribute to the development of ideas in the text?

a. it shows how thankful freed slaves were of harriet tubman.
b. it provides an example of harriet tubmans secret accomplishments.
c. it depicts the journey to freedom as a difficult one.
d. it expresses frederick douglasss desire for more people to know about harriet tubmans accomplishments.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: The quote focuses on the people Tubman helped (trembling, scarred, foot - sore) and her actions, not on the freed slaves' thankfulness. So A is incorrect.
• Option B: The quote describes the people Tubman led to freedom and the hardships they faced, not her "secret accomplishments". So B is incorrect.
• Option C: The words "trembling, scarred, and foot - sore" to describe the bondmen and women, along with "led out of the house of bondage", show that the journey to freedom was difficult. This option matches the quote's contribution to the text's ideas.
• Option D: The quote is about the people Tubman helped and their state, not about Douglass wanting more people to know about her accomplishments. So D is incorrect.

Answer:

C. It depicts the journey to freedom as a difficult one.
