Read the passage from Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad by Ann Petry.

When Harriet heard of the sale of her sisters, she knew that the time had finally come when she must leave the plantation. She was reluctant to attempt the long trip North alone, not because of John Tubman’s threat to betray her, but because she was afraid she might fall asleep somewhere along the way and so would be caught immediately. She persuaded all three of her brothers to go with her.

Based on the details in this passage, which statement would Petry most likely agree with?

Harriet was optimistic that her plan would work.
Harriet was determined to leave no matter what.
Harriet was anxious about traveling with her three brothers.
Harriet was unconcerned about the danger of getting caught.
