Question

HELPP

Determined not to let my knees tremble, I forced myself up the steps to the room where I had been directed. I
knocked on the door. No one answered, so I opened it.
As the door swung open, I saw a round table filled with high-ranking Nazis. Their caps were on the table, and in
the middle of the table was a radio. The radio was playing an English broadcast. Right away, I recognized the
BBC.
All their eyes burned into me. I realized that I had accidentally witnessed them committing a crime of treason, for
which the penalty was death.
Which line from the passage supports the theme "People overcome their fears to follow their beliefs"?
O "He told me the room number and continued to shake his head."

Answer: Determined not to let my knees tremble, I forced myself up the steps to the room where I had been directed

Step-by-step explanation:

This relates to events about the famous Jewish child, Anne Frank and the years her family spent hidden from the Germans. This particular except relates to the efforts of Miep Gies to get Mr. Frank released after the Gestapo had captured them.

Mr. Gies was directed to an upstairs room where he was to see the Austrian's boss as he thought he could get Mr. Frank released. Even though he was very afraid, he wanted to get Mr. Frank released so he overcame his fears and forced himself up the stairs to the room.
