Answer 1

I think that it is A

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) Sympathy for his people.

The speaker wants most for his audience to feel sympathy for his people.

We are referring to a passage from Chief Joseph’s surrender speech of October 5, 1877.

There are moments in the speech that clearly shows how Chief Joseph wants people to show sympathy for his people. For instance, “I am tired of fighting, our chiefs are killed.” He depicts the sad and tired mood of the Chief. In other sentences you can read “it is cold and we have no blankets; the little children are freezing to death.” Chief Joseph is describing tragical moments that his tribe is living. That is why the speaker wants most for his audience to feel sympathy for his people.
