Read the excerpt from Eighty Years and More: Reminiscences, 1815-1897. So, as soon as we were dismissed, I ran down the hill, rushed breathless into [my father’s] office, laid the new Greek Testament, which was my prize, on his table and exclaimed: "There, I got it!" He took up the book, asked me some questions about the class, the teachers, the spectators, and evidently pleased, handed it back to me. Then, while I stood looking and waiting for him to say something which would show that he recognized the equality of the daughter with the son, he kissed me on the forehead and exclaimed, with a sigh, “Ah, you should have been a boy.”

Which question would best help the reader understand Stanton’s viewpoint in the excerpt?

Why does Stanton’s father ask her questions?
Why does Stanton receive a new Greek Testament?
Why is Stanton so excited about winning a prize?
