d. the first time he worked the fields of a plantation

The correct answer is C) The first time he saw a slave being whipped.

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass was a prolific African American orator and abolitionist who wrote about the hell of slavery and became a leader for the abolitionist movement.

He wrote that the entrance to the hell of slavery was when he saw Captain Anthony whipping Aunt Hester because she was not supposed to be with other slaves and Captain Anthony wanted her for himself. Douglas witnessed this at a young age and introduced him to slavery and male masters' relations to female slaves.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
