HELP!

Which quotation from The Tempest most clearly shows how Shakespeare uses the conflict of the shipwreck to introduce Miranda’s kind nature?

A) O, I have suffer’d
With those that I saw suffer! a brave vessel,
Who had, no doubt, some noble creature in her,
Dash’d all to pieces.

B) O the heavens!
What foul play had we that we came from thence?
Or blessed was’t we did?

C) Heavens thank you for’t! And now, I pray you, sir,
For still ’tis beating in my mind, your reason
For raising this sea-storm?

D)You have often
Begun to tell me what I am; but stopp’d,
And left me to a bootless inquisition,
Concluding “Stay: not yet.”

A. This quote shows that Miranda empathizes with people. It states that she suffers when they suffer. It upset her to watch someone else be hurt.
