Based on the texts provided, which statement is accurate?

Fire from the Rock is a great book that I would recommend to others. It is set in 1957 Little Rock, Arkansas, a city boiling over racial segregation. Black and white youths are hot-blooded and hot-tempered, and many adults fan these flames of anger and violence. The protagonist is fifteen-year-old Sylvia Patterson, a fictional character who loves boys, music, and poetry. She has the opportunity to be one of the first nine African American students to integrate the all-white Central High School, but Sylvia is not excited about this and fears she is not brave enough. However, her brother wants to be on the list and will do anything to get on it. Just a few days later, Sylvia's brother gets beaten up by three white boys. This makes Sylvia doubt the idea even more.

A) Governor Faubus was angered by Draper's novel because of its negative portrayal of him.
B) The actions of the governor in Draper's story are based on the historical record of the actions of Governor Faubus.
C) Draper set her novel in 1957 in Arkansas, but the governor in her story does not share the same opinions or take the same actions as the historical Governor Faubus.
D) Draper gives the governor in her story a different name and physical description, but that character shares the same opinions or takes the same actions as the historical Governor Faubus.

After depriving her of all rights as a married woman, if single, and the owner of property, he has taxed her to support a government which recognizes her only when her property can be made profitable to it…. he has denied her the facilities for obtaining a thorough education, all colleges being closed against her…. he has usurped the prerogative of jehovah himself, claiming it as his right to assign for her a sphere of action, when that belongs to her conscience and to her god. he has endeavored, in every way that he could, to destroy her confidence in her own powers, to lessen her self-respect, and to make her willing to lead a dependent and abject life. now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one-half the people of this country, their social and religious degradation--in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved, oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of the united states. read the passage on the left to answer the following questions: 4) in what manner was this document patterned off of the preamble to the declaration of independence? a) it uses the same language, but frames women being oppressed by men instead of the 13 colonies being oppressed by the british. b) it uses different language, but argues for a society in which men and women separate like the colonists separated from the british. c) it uses the same language, but frames the notion of men standing up for women instead of the 13 colonies standing up to the british. d) it uses different language, but argues for a society in which men and women join forces to attack the injustices that plague both sexes.
