MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

What does the following passage mainly reveal about Hatshepsut (paragraph 11)?

At first, little Tuthmosis III was considered the pharaoh, with Hatshepsut just his second-in-command. But a small child could not be an effective ruler. As Hatshepsut settled into her role as regent, she gradually took on more and more of the royal decision-making. She appointed officials and advisors; dealt with the priests; appeared in public ceremonies first behind, then beside, and eventually in front of her nephew. Gradually, over seven years, her power and influence grew. In the end, Hatshepsut was ruling Egypt in all but name.

She slowly and strategically took on more power.

She was afraid of becoming powerful.
