Question 7 • English Language Arts 11

Read the excerpt from "An Indian's View of Indian Affairs." They told us to treat all men as they treated us; that we should never be the first to break a bargain; that it was a disgrace to tell a lie; that we should speak only the truth; that it was a shame for one man to take from another his wife, or [to take] his property without paying for it. What central idea from the speech is most strengthened by this quote?

Answer
A
It is important to listen to one’s elders.
B
It is important to be faithful to a spouse.
C
It is important to be guided by morals.
D
It is important to pay for what one wants.

Explanation

The quote lists several moral principles: treat others as you wish to be treated, keep bargains, tell the truth, and respect others’ spouses and property. Together, these examples support the broader idea that people should be guided by morals. The choice about paying for what one wants is mentioned, but it covers only one detail rather than the central idea.
