Which sentence in this excerpt from northup solomon's twelve years a slave shows the element of personal reflection?
at first i was somewhat frightened, and my impulse was to run. a(there was no one about except rachel, the cook, and chapin's wife, and neither of them were to be seen.) the rest were in the field. i knew he intended to whip me, and it was the first time any one had attempted it since my arrival at avoyelles. b(i felt, moreover, that i had been faithful—that i was guilty of no wrong whatever, and deserved commendation rather than punishment). my fear changed to anger, and before he reached me i had made up my mind fully not to be whipped, let the result be life or death.

c(winding the lash around his hand, and taking hold of the small end of the stock, he walked up to me, and with a malignant look, ordered me to strip.)

d("master tibeats" said i, looking him boldly in the face, "i will not." )i was about to say something further in justification, but with concentrated vengeance, he sprang upon me, seizing me by the throat with one hand, raising the whip with the other, in the act of striking. before the blow descended, however, i had caught him by the collar of the coat, and drawn him closely to me. e(reaching down, i seized him by the ankle, and pushing him back with the other hand, he fell over on the ground.)

(20 points) passage: this year will be a record-breaking year for storms 1it looks like 2012 will be a year for the record books. thunderstorms, hurricanes, and tornadoes have increased across the country. the storms' high winds and heavy rains are making history. early tornado and hurricane seasons 2in march, not usually a busy month for tornadoes, the south and midwest had a large number of twisters. warm weather made conditions ripe for the creation of tornadoes. on some days, twisters dropped from the sky by the dozen. 3hurricane season also came early. two tropical storms hit the southeast in may. two more strong storms followed in june. severe thunderstorms 4many states that have escaped tornadoes and hurricanes have had severe thunderstorms. these giant storms dumped several inches of rain and caused flooding across the northeast and midwest. 5the end of hurricane season is months away, and this year's storm count and rainfall amounts could leave 2011 in the dust. forecasters say the wet, windy weather might stick around until fall. labor day parade rained out 6there is no joy in green town, where the annual labor day parade was called off because of heavy rain. the town's mayor says the parade hasn't been rained out in fifty years. 7a strong band of thunderstorms hit green town on sunday. more than two inches of rain fell each hour. by monday morning, main street looked more like a creek than a parade route. mayor nora bell said she had to call off the parade.
