Read the excerpt from The Miracle Worker. ANNIE: The only time I have trouble is when I’m right.
(But she is amused at herself, as in ANAGNOS.)
Is it my fault it’s so often? I won’t give them trouble, Mr. ANAGNOS, I’ll be ladylike they won’t even notice I’ve come.
ANAGNOS: Annie, be- humble. It is not as if you have so many offers to pick and choose. You will need their affection, working with this child.

C. confident

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the following line from the excerpt:

ANAGNOS: Annie, be- humble. It is not as if you have so many offers to pick and choose.

It is the line above that reveals what we need to know about Annie. Anagnos is telling her to be humble because, at this moment, she sounds overly confident. She even says she only has trouble when she is right, and that she is not the one to blame if she has trouble so often. Annie's confidence is actually quite close to becoming arrogance. She is willing to behave, but Anagnos still feels the need to tell her to be humble.

the use supports it by making it seem like the dictators are not bad to the people when the truly are.
