Read this excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered.I just sat there, frozen. I'd lost track of time. At some point the two workers from downstairs in the workplace came up to me and said that they were so sorry, that they hadn't known. Then Van Matto came and said something, and I saw that the Austrian had given him the keys that he had taken from me. I can't imagine where the time had gone. First, it had been eleven or twelve o'clock when the Dutch Nazi had come. Then it must have been about one-thirty when I'd heard the footsteps on the inner stairway. Then, suddenly, Elli was back, and Henk had arrived, and I realized that it was five o'clock and the day had passed.Why does Miep feel this way?
Answer
A
She is relieved that the frightening officers have left.
B
She is shocked and disappointed by the day’s events.
C
She is overwhelmed by her work at Mr. Frank’s office.
D
She is scared by the threats of the Austrian officer.
Explanation
Miep says she sat “frozen” and had lost track of time after the Dutch Nazi and Austrian officer came. The workers’ apology and the return of the keys show that a frightening event had just happened, leaving her overwhelmed by the day’s events. So she is shocked and disappointed, not simply relieved or busy with office work.
