What do the details in paragraph 3 reveal about the author’s point of view? *

15 points

A The author thinks that clothing restrictions were less of a burden than the necessity of hard work.

B The author thinks that all women were treated unfairly regardless of economic status.

C The author thinks that poor women had more freedom of dress even though they had to work hard.

D The author thinks that the contrast between two classes of women had an effect on their advancement.


pg 3: While wealthier women were saddled with long skirts and restrictive corsets, those who were less well off worked anonymously in mills and factories. All in all, the result was the same. Except in a few instances, the public image of America was male. Politicians, soldiers, business leaders, and even the leading athletes in the new sports of baseball and football were all men. But the bicycle changed that. Suddenly, women were leaving their homes to cycle and socialize on country roads and city streets. Bicycle racers such as Louise Armaindo and Frankie Nelson had their exploits splashed all over the papers. Bicycle manufacturers, intent on mining an untapped market, showed female models in their advertisements. thanks to the wheel, women were starting to be seen and heard in public life.

Read the following excerpt from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling.

The Law of the Jungle, which never orders anything without a reason, forbids every beast to eat Man except when he is killing to show his children how to kill, and then he must hunt outside the hunting-grounds of his pack or tribe. The real reason for this is that man-killing means, sooner or later, the arrival of white men on elephants, with guns, and hundreds of brown men with gongs and rockets and torches. Then everybody in the jungle suffers. The reason the beasts give among themselves is that Man is the weakest and most defenseless of all living things, and it is unsportsmanlike to touch him. They say too—and it is true—that man-eaters become mangy, and lose their teeth.

What is the most important purpose of the narrator in this excerpt?

to explain that human beings are the weakest of all the animals in the jungle
to explain why Shere Khan will kill a human being instead of another animal
to explain why the animals of the jungle typically do not kill human beings
to explain how seriously all of the animals take the Law of the Jungle
