Explanation:

To determine the similarity, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: There's no indication Joey or the speaker was wrongfully accused. Eliminate.
• Option 2: The poem "Simply Me" doesn't focus on being hurt by comparisons, and while Joey might face some, this isn't the core similarity. Eliminate.
• Option 3: The speaker in "Simply Me" doesn't find strength through befriending someone. Eliminate.
• Option 4: Joey in "Good Enough" and the speaker in "Simply Me" both discover positive aspects when they shift their focus (e.g., Joey on self - worth, speaker on self - acceptance). This fits.

Answer:

D. Both find something positive when they shift their focus.
