Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz. TERI SCHULTZ: Miep Gies said she

did not like being called a hero. Yet, she risked her life many times over to help the Frank family during the two years they hid from the Nazis in a secret annex built into the Trading Company office in Amsterdam where she'd worked for Otto Frank almost a decade. Providing refuge to Jews, she noted later, carried a punishment of at least six months in a concentration camp. Still, the Austrian-born Dutch woman, knighted by the governments of Germany and the Netherlands, recipient of a medal from Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, always insisted she had done nothing extraordinary. Which answer best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt? After the war, Miep Gies received many honors for her attempts to save the Frank family. Miep Gies provided refuge to a Jewish family, even though she could have been punished. Although Miep Gies never considered herself a hero; after the war, many other people did. Miep Gies was knighted by two governments and received a medal from Yad Vashem.

The answer that best summarizes the central idea of the excerpt is Although Miep Gies never considered herself a hero; after the war, many other people did.  

This excerpt describes some details about how Miep Gies helped Jews to hide from the Nazi movement and how she never saw her action as anything extraordinary which re-enforce the idea that she never considered herself a hero.

We don't have any other elements of information in this excerpt to select the other options as the correct answer.

3. In "The Glittering Noise," some of the speaker's
ira [324]

Answer:

The TWO excerpts from the poem that support this idea are:

1. <em>To tell the truth, I believe I could be happy doing nothing but reading old diaries morning to night</em>

2. <em>Aware of the shame I ought to feel - defecting so willingly from my own century - I stroll calmly through candlelit rooms and down to the quay,  to board a waiting vessel that sails with the tide into the finest clear night pssible</em>...

Explanation:

The Glittering Noise is a poem written by a British Poet by Denise Levertov.

The poem tends to speak intentionally about the writer who reveals what he likes doing (his hobby). Also, it reveals  the experiences of people in every era.

The two excerpts simply speak of how the writer feels and the actions that follow the feelings he has.  The effect of a confession these excerpts create depicts the writer's honesty in the experiences he passed through. It produces open-mindedness and down to earth.
