Read this part of the one of Anne’s speeches in The Diary of Anne Frank, Act I.

The best part about this room….you can look down and see a bit of the street and the canal. There’s a houseboat…you can see the end of it…a bargeman lives there with his family…They have a baby and he’s just beginning to walk and I’m so afraid he’ll fall into the canal. I watch him…

What is the most reasonable inference to draw about Anne’s personality from the details in this speech?

• She is nosy because she keeps an eye on the baby even though she does not know the bargeman and his wife.

• She is resourceful because she finds outside interests that take her mind off having to live in fear of Nazis

• She is foolish because she has established communications with outsiders in spite of being warned of the danger.
