Read the excerpt from loom and spindle. my mother's boarders were many of them young men, and usually farmers' sons. they were almost invariably of good character and behavior, and it was a continual pleasure for me and my brothers to associate with them. i was treated like a little sister, never hearing a word or seeing a look to remind me that i was not of the same sex as my brothers. i played checkers with them, sometimes "beating," and took part in their conversation, and it never came into my mind that they were not the same as so many "girls." which statement best reflects the narrator’s perspective in the excerpt? she believes that the boarders preferred her company to her brother’s. she believes that the boarders taught her more than her teachers. she appreciates the equal treatment the boarders offered her. she appreciates the fun games that the boarders taught her.
