D. the fact that race, or color, or bringing-up, or environment counts nothing against a determined heart, if it is backed and aided by intelligence.

Matthew Henson was an African-American man who accompanied R. E. Peary in his expeditions of the Arctic. Peary stated that he could not have done any of the things he accomplished without Henson. Moreover, Henson was an orphan, and could not read or write until he was 13. Therefore, he was an example of the fact that race, color, or upbringing are no obstacles for a determined heart that is backed by intelligence.

you only need simple sentences to answer this. just answer these questions.

what about the father? what would annie think of him? she might not like him, but does she respect him.

how about the son? would annie think he is the only voice of sanity in an insane place?

what about helen herself? this is the key question. how does she see helen? what do you suppose she thought her first job was going to be.
