Answer 1

Answer: d. She saved John Smith's life.

Explanation: Pocahontas was daughter to the chief of the Powhatan Indian confederacy who got married to John Rolfe in Jamestown, Virginia resulting in several years of peace between the Jamestown settlers and the Powhatan Indians for several years. John Smith was an English adventurer who oversaw the survival efforts of the settlers of Jamestown and while his companions were killed by Powhatan warriors, he was spared and released through the intervention of Pocahontas.
