Explanation:

To determine what applies to both Dr. Hoganson and Ms. Phillips, we analyze their stories:

• Dr. Hoganson: Inspired by a surgeon (his experience) to become a doctor (career).
• Ms. Phillips: Inspired by time in other countries (her experience) to help people learn English (career).
• Now, check the options:
• "Sending letters to special people inspired them to help others": No mention of letters. Eliminate.
• "They were eager to forget about people they knew in their youth": No indication of forgetting. Eliminate.
• "Events in their childhood steered them away from some careers": Their stories are about being steered toward careers, not away. Eliminate.
• "Their experiences directly led them to the careers they chose": Dr. Hoganson’s experience (surgeon saving his life) led to his career as a doctor. Ms. Phillips’ experience (time in other countries) led to her career helping people learn English. This matches.
