HELP QUICK 1OO POINTS AND BRAINLIET TO CORRECT ANSWER Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

It is possible, and even quite probable, that but for the mere circumstance of being removed from that plantation to Baltimore, I should have to-day, instead of being here seated by my own table, in the enjoyment of freedom and the happiness of home, writing this Narrative, been confined in the galling chains of slavery. Going to live at Baltimore laid the foundation, and opened the gateway, to all my subsequent prosperity. I have ever regarded it as the first plain manifestation of that kind providence which has ever since attended me, and marked my life with so many favors. I regarded the selection of myself as being somewhat remarkable. There were a number of slave children that might have been sent from the plantation to Baltimore. There were those younger, those older, and those of the same age. I was chosen from among them all, and was the first, last, and only choice.

Which of these predictions is best supported by the information provided?

A. Douglass will work to help others because he is aware of his own good fortune.
B. Douglass will own a plantation of his own because he is an extremely wealthy man.
C. Douglass will rescue all the other enslaved persons from his plantation because he is powerful.
D. Douglass will encourage enslaved persons to come to Baltimore because it is a city of promise.
