Read the the passage from Anne Frank: A Diary of a Young Girl.

Yesterday afternoon Margot and I were having a bath here and I said, "Supposing we were to take the children who are walking past, one by one, hoist them up with a fishing rod, give them each a bath, wash and mend their clothes, and then ... " Margot interrupted me, "By tomorrow they would look just as filthy and ragged as before."

Which excerpt from the passage best supports the idea that Margot is less optimistic than Anne?

A. "'By tomorrow they would look just as filthy and ragged as before.'"

B. "'Supposing we were to take the children who are walking past, one by one, hoist them up with a fishing rod ... '"

C. "' ... give them each a bath, wash and mend their clothes, and then ... '"

D. "Yesterday afternoon Margot and I were having a bath here ..."

    B. "'Supposing we were to take the children who are walking past, one by one, hoist them up with a fishing rod ... '"

    Explanation:

    Optimistic pertains to something in the future, sometimes hypothetic. Since the word "Supposing" is hypothetical, something that might or might not happen in the future, you would go with this answer.

    I hope this is correct, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.
