Try It: Analyzing Reflection and Description

Question

The author most likely includes the reflection about Mungo Park's journey from lines 26-42 in order to:

1. A Convince the reader that her journey is not as dangerous as it seems

B Help the reader understand her determination

1. C Show that the author is stronger and more prepared than others who have attempted this journey

D Help the reader to understand her doubts about her abilities

Answer 1

Since I haven't read the passage, I'll take an educated guess and say B since the explorer was probably determined. The other passages seem like personal reflections. Hope that helps.
