Read the passage.

This ominous tool she presented to Miss Scatcherd with a respectful courtesy; then she quietly, and without being told, unloosed her pinafore, and the teacher instantly and sharply inflicted on her neck a dozen strokes with the bunch of twigs. Not a tear rose to Burns's eye; and, while I paused from my sewing, because my fingers quivered at this spectacle with a sentiment of unavailing and impotent anger, not a feature of her pensive face altered its ordinary expression.

A reader can analyze an author's assumptions by examining how characters behave. Which description best expresses how Jane feels about Miss Scatcherd's actions in this passage from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë?

pensive and respectful

quiet and understanding

powerless and angry

sad and ordinary
