Read the following excerpt from chapter 6 of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights
She was not one that would have disturbed the house much on her own account. Every object she saw, the moment she crossed
the threshold, appeared to delight her, and every circumstance that took place about herexcept the preparing for the burial, and
the presence of the mourners. I thought she was half silly, from her behaviour while that went on: she ran into her chamber, and
made me come with her, though I should have been dressing the children: and there she sat shivering and clasping her hands.
and asking repeatedly-"Are they gone yet?' Then she began describing with hysterical emotion the effect it produced on her to
see black; and started, and trembled, and, at last, fell a-weeping-and when I asked what was the matter, answered, she didn't
know; but she felt so afraid of dying! I imagined her as little likely to die as myself. She was rather thin, but young, and fresh-
complexioned, and her eyes sparkled as bright as diamonds. I did remark, to be sure that mounting the stairs made her breathe
very quick; that the least sudden noise set her in a quiver, and that she coughed troublesomely sometimes: but I knew nothing
of what these symptoms portended, and had no impulse to sympathise[with her. We don't in general take to foreigners here, Mr.
Lockwood, unless they take to us first.

A. gloomy

Read the excerpt from shirley chisholm’s speech “equal rights for women.” as a black person, i am no stranger to race prejudice. but the truth is that in the political world i have been far oftener discriminated against because i am a woman than because i am black. prejudice against blacks is becoming unacceptable although it will take years to eliminate it. but it is doomed because, slowly, white america is beginning to admit that it exists. prejudice against women is still acceptable. there is very little understanding yet of the immorality involved in double pay scales and the classification of most of the better jobs as “for men only.” the fourteenth amendment states all persons born or naturalized in the united states, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the united states and of the state wherein they reside. no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the united states; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. how does chisholm incorporate the constitutional principle based on the fourteenth amendment in the excerpt? by comparing the unequal treatment shared by african americans and women by explaining how life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are not shared by all citizens by showing that the government has made no effort to enforce the rights of all people by conveying the idea that everyone must live by the words stated in the constitution
