Thump, thump! Thump, thump! The galloping hooves resounded through the dense woods surrounding Lucy Wilkinson's wooden cottage. With a candle in hand, Lucy dashed to the door and swung it open. A horse and its rider were quickly approaching and would arrive at the house shortly. As the rider drew closer, the flicker of candlelight illuminated her face, revealing Lucy's neighbor. "Martha Kingston, why are you out riding at this late hour? Aren't you aware that British soldiers are in the vicinity?" The young girl signaled for the horse to halt in front of Lucy. "That's the very reason I'm riding," Martha replied. "I promised my father I would go out and alert others to the presence of the redcoats. Is your father around?" Lucy's father was a prominent figure in the local militia and among the most reliable soldiers in the area. "Father heard that a group of redcoats was near Oakwood, advancing towards us, so he's out looking for them right now," Lucy informed Martha. Martha furrowed her brow, sighed, and then said, "I was hoping he could assist me in raising the alarm." Lucy straightened her posture, attempting to appear taller than her 11 years. "Nobody knows the northern and southern back roads better than me, so if you require a rider, I'd be more than glad to help." Martha assessed the familiar young girl and nodded in agreement. "Though you're young, I could certainly use any assistance I can get to warn the other militia members in Greenville County. If you take that route, I'll cover the ones from east to west. We might just make it in time to turn the tide." How can Martha and Lucy's relationship be described based on the passage?

d) They are familiar neighbors.

A Surprising Guest: Jane Thompson was tidying up her living room, preparing for the book club meeting that evening when a knock sounded on her door. She opened it to find her friend, Mary, standing there with an excited smile. "Hello, Jane," Mary greeted, the anticipation evident in her voice. "I heard there was a fascinating guest at your sister's tea party yesterday." Jane chuckled, setting down the broom in her hand. "It was quite an unexpected event," she admitted, and explained that a woman named Harriet Tubman made a surprise appearance. "Really? What did she talk about?" Mary inquired.
