Which three sentences in the passage best show the author's belief that plymouth colony's fate was guided by divine providence?

and of these in the time of most distress, there was but 6 or 7 sound persons, who, to their great commendations be it spoken, spared no pains, night nor day, but with abundance of toil and hazard of their own health, fetched them wood, made them fires, dressed them meat, made their beds, washed their loathsome clothes, clothed and unclothed them; in a word, did all the homely and necessary offices for them which dainty and queasy stomachs cannot endure to hear named; and all this willingly and cheerfully, without any grudging in the least, showing herein their true love unto their friends and brethren. a rare example and worthy to be remembered. two of these were mr. william brewster, their reverend elder, and myles standish, their captain and military commander, unto whom myself, and many others, were much beholden in our low and sick condition. yet the lord so upheld these persons, as in this general calamity they were not at all infected either with sickness, or lameness. and what i have said of these, i may say of many others who died in this general visitation, and others yet living, that whilst they had health, yea, or any strength continuing, they were not wanting to any that had need of them. and i doubt not but their recompense is with the lord.

Select the correct answer. what opinion about russian society does leo tolstoy express in this excerpt from the death of ivan ilyich? the awful, terrible act of his dying was, he could see, reduced by those about him to the level of a casual, unpleasant, and almost indecorous incident (as if someone entered a drawing room defusing an unpleasant odour) and this was done by that very decorum which he had served all his life long. he saw that no one felt for him, because no one even wished to grasp his position. only gerasim recognized it and pitied him. and so ivan ilyich felt at ease only with him. he felt comforted when gerasim supported his legs (sometimes all night long) and refused to go to bed, saying: "don't you worry, ivan ilyich. i'll get sleep enough later on," or when he suddenly became familiar and exclaimed: "if you weren't sick it would be another matter, but as it is, why should i grudge a little trouble? " gerasim alone did not lie; everything showed that he alone understood the facts of the case and did not consider it necessary to disguise them, but simply felt sorry for his emaciated and enfeebled master. once when ivan ilyich was sending him away he even said straight out: "we shall all of us die, so why should i grudge a little trouble? "—expressing the fact that he did not think his work burdensome, because he was doing it for a dying man and hoped someone would do the same for him when his time came. a. the peasant class in nineteenth-century russia was full of honest and compassionate people. b. educated professionals gained influence in russian society in the nineteenth century. c. in the nineteenth century, middle-class russians were rich and well-educated. d. peasants more readily accepted unpleasant facts of life, while the middle class tried to deny them.
