Which excerpt from the prologue of Free the Children reflects what is happening in this frame? With the help of a human-rights organization, Iqbal was able to escape and go to school. Iqbal completed two grade levels that first year. In exchange, Iqbal, said to be only four years old at the time, was forced to join several other child weavers squatting before looms in the owner's factory. The man had not only the right to Iqbal's labour, but also, if he wished, the right to sell him to any other factory owner. He learned quickly not to bring on the wrath of the factory owner. If he made mistakes, fines were added to the sum owed by his parents.

Answer:

The excerpt that reflects what is happening in the frame is "With the help of a human-rights organization, Iqbal was able to escape and go to school."

Step-by-step explanation:

From Free the Children, story is told of a young Pakistani boy Iqbal Masih who was forced to work long inhumane hours to pay off the debts his family owed. He was four years old when he was thrown into the child labor market.

When Iqbal saw that no matter how much he worked that he could never pay off the debts as they were enormous and the living conditions were miserable, he ran away and with the help of a human rights organisation he was able to get education and helped over 3,000 children in Pakistan out of child labor.
