"meg, i wish you'd go and see the hummels. you know mother told us not to forget them," said beth, ten days after mrs. march's departure.
"i'm too tired to go this afternoon," replied meg, rocking comfortably as she sewed.
"can't you, jo? " asked beth.
"why don't you go yourself? " asked meg.
"i have been every day, but the baby is sick, and i don't know what to do for it. mrs. hummel goes away to work, and lottchen takes care of it. but it gets sicker and sicker, and i think you or hannah ought to go."
beth spoke earnestly, and meg promised she would go tomorrow.
"ask hannah for some nice little mess, and take it round, beth, the air will do you good," said jo, adding apologetically, "i'd go but i want to finish my writing."
"my head aches and i'm tired, so i thought maybe some of you would go," said beth.
"amy will be in presently, and she will run down for us," suggested meg.
so beth lay down on the sofa, the others returned to their work, and the hummels were forgotten. an hour passed. amy did not come, meg went to her room to try on a new dress, jo was absorbed in her story, and hannah was sound asleep before the kitchen fire, when beth quietly put on her hood, filled her basket with odds and ends for the poor children, and went out into the chilly air with a heavy head and a grieved look in her patient eyes.

C. Beth is more dutiful than her sisters.

Explanation:

What this passage shows is that Beth is more dutiful than her sisters. In this text, we learn that Beth wants to convince one of her sisters to go visit the Hummels. She has visited constantly, but wants someone else to go as well. However, we learn that her other sisters are not as dutiful, as they seem very reluctant to carry out this visit, even after promising they would do it.

israel is a small country in the middle east about the size of the state of new jersey. the country has a diverse climate with snowy mountains in the north and the hot desert in the south. jordan, syria, and the palestinian authority all border israel to the east. lebanon serves as the northern border and egypt borders in the south.about two-thirds of the population was born in israel. all other israelis come from over 100 different countries. most israeli jews live a lifestyle similar to western europeans and north americans.israel's population is about 75 percent jewish; most of the rest is arab. the israeli-occupied palestinian territories have some 3.5 million inhabitants—about 11 percent jewish, 89 percent palestinian.because of israel's variety of terrain and climate, the country has a large variety of animals. boars roam the damp oak woodlands of the golan heights. caspian turtles live in the marshlands along the coast. and hyenas are prevalent in the negev desert region in the southern israel.israel is the only fully democratic country in the middle east. elections are held for seats in the knesset or parliament every four years. if a party wins 2 percent of the votes, the party gets one or more seats in parliament. no one party has control so they have to work together. the leader of the largest party becomes prime minister.the story of modern israel begins more than 3,500 years ago. most israelis are jews, who are said to be descended from the biblical figure abraham, through his son isaac.
