Question

1. which piece of evidence best supports that annemarie demonstrates courage?

• she walks quietly with ellen to the boat despite the soldiers nearby.
• she complains about following her parents’ rules.
• she hides under her bed when she is scared.
• she writes in her diary about her fears.

Explanation:

To determine which option shows Annemarie's courage, we analyze each choice:

• "She walks quietly with Ellen to the boat despite the soldiers nearby" shows her acting bravely in a dangerous situation (soldiers present), which aligns with courage (acting despite fear).
• "She complains about following her parents’ rules" shows disobedience or frustration, not courage.
• "She hides under her bed when she is scared" is a fearful reaction, not courage.
• "She writes in her diary about her fears" is expressing fear, not demonstrating courage.

So the first option is the best evidence of courage.

Answer:

A. She walks quietly with Ellen to the boat despite the soldiers nearby
