HELP PLEASE 100POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!!!!!
The courage that my mother had

Went with her, and is with her still:

Rock from New England quarried;

Now granite in a granite hill.

The golden brooch my mother wore

She left behind for me to wear;

I have nothing I treasure more:

Yet, it is something I could spare.

Oh, if instead, she'd left to me

The thing she took into the grave! -

That courage like a rock, which she

Has no more need of, and I have.

—“The Courage That My Mother Had,”
Edna St. Vincent Milla

Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighbouring states; we are rather a pattern to others than imitators ourselves. Its administration favours the many instead of the few; this is why it is called a democracy. If we look to the laws, they afford equal justice to all in their private differences; if no social standing, advancement in public life falls to reputation for capacity, class considerations not being allowed to interfere with merit; nor again does poverty bar the way, if a man is able to serve the state, he is not hindered by the obscurity of his condition. The freedom which we enjoy in our government extends also to our ordinary life. There, far from exercising a jealous surveillance over each other, we do not feel called upon to be angry with our neighbour for doing what he likes, or even to indulge in those injurious looks which cannot fail to be offensive, although they inflict no positive penalty. But all this ease in our private relations does not make us lawless as citizens.

–Funeral Oration,
Pericles

Passage:

adapted from Little Women
by Louisa M. Alcott

Down they went, feeling timid, for they seldom went to parties, and, casual as this little gathering was, it was an event to them. Mrs. Gardiner, an old lady, greeted them kindly and handed them over to the eldest of her six daughters. Meg knew Sallie and was at her ease very soon, but Jo, who did not care much for girls or girlish gossip, stood about, with her back carefully against the wall, and felt out of place. Some boys were talking about skates in another part of the room. Jo longed to go and join them, for she enjoyed skating. She telegraphed her wish to Meg, but her eyebrows went up so alarmingly that she dared not to stir. No one came to talk to her, and one by one, the group near her faded away, until she was left alone. She stared at people rather gloomily until the dancing began. Meg was asked at once, and the tight slippers tripped about so briskly that none would have guessed the pain their wearer suffered smilingly. Jo saw a big red-headed youth approaching her corner, and fearing he meant to engage her, she slipped behind a curtain, intending to peep and enjoy herself in peace.

Question:

How does the point of view affect the plot of the passage?

A. It allows the reader to understand what makes Meg feel so confident.
B. It allows the reader to understand how Meg feels about the guests.
C. It allows the reader to understand how the guests react to Meg and Jo.
D. It allows the reader to understand what causes Jo to feel like an outsider.
