Read the following excerpt from frederick douglass’s “learning to read and write” and answer the question. as i writhed under it, i would at times feel that learning to read had been a curse rather than a blessing. it opened my eyes to the horrible pit, but to no ladder upon which to get out. in moments of agony, i envied my fellow slaves for their stupidity. i have often wished myself a beast. i preferred the condition of the meanest reptile to my own. which statement best describes how the author’s experience has shaped his point of view? the strongest effect on his literacy is the light it casts on the world he already knows. he is finally able to speak his mind to everyone around him. the struggles he faces are almost insurmountable. he longs to be free and become an abolitionist.

The answer is A. The strongest effect on his literacy is the light it casts on the world he already knows.

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, Frederick Douglass describes negative feelings towards knowing how to read and write as in "I would at times feel that learning to read had been a curse rather than a blessing" that show different to what is expected to learn to read had a negative effect. This, along with details such as "opened my eyes to the horrible pit" or "I envied my fellow slaves for their stupidity" show that the process of learning to read showed Douglass a new negative perspective about the world he ignored before. Therefore, the way this experience shaped Douglass point of view is that "the strongest effect on his literacy is the light it casts on the world he already knows".
