Jaidyn Moody · Answer 1

The correct answer is intelligent, stubborn.

Explanation:

Jane Eyre is a novel written by Charlotte Brontë, an English novel writer and one of the Brontë sisters who were also writers. Eyre is in charge of her aunt, who was the wife of Eyre's uncle, Mr. Reed, who died soon after she was adopted. Mr. Brocklehurst is the director of a charity school for girls, Lowood Institution. The correct answer is letter A because in the dialog, Jane knows how to answer Brocklehurst questions (intelligent) and it seems like she always wants to be right or have the last word (stubborn.)
