Question

select two pieces of evidence that best demonstrate that molly had a remarkable amount of courage.

□ when william collapsed, molly ran to his side to see what was wrong.

□ when an enemy’s cannon ball nearly hit her, she continued her work.

□ molly married a man who became a soldier in the continental army.

□ molly took william’s place at the cannon and fought with the soldiers.

□ after the battle, molly acknowledged general washington with respect.

Explanation:

• For "When an enemy’s cannon ball nearly hit her, she continued her work": Facing a life - threatening situation (enemy cannon ball nearly hitting) and still carrying on work shows courage as she overcomes fear.
• For "Molly took William’s place at the cannon and fought with the soldiers": Taking on a soldier's role in battle, especially replacing someone, requires great courage as it involves danger and stepping into a combat - related duty.
• The other options: Running to William's side is more of a caring act, marrying a soldier is a personal choice not directly about courage in action, and acknowledging General Washington is a respectful act not related to courage.

Answer:

• When an enemy’s cannon ball nearly hit her, she continued her work.
• Molly took William’s place at the cannon and fought with the soldiers.
