Read the excerpt from the play trifles, by susan glaspell. county attorney (with the gallantry of a young politician). and yet, for all their worries, what would we do without the ladies? (the women do not unbend. he goes to the sink, takes a dipperful of water from the pail and, pouring it into a basin, washes his hands. starts to wipe them on the roller-towel, turns it for a cleaner place.) dirty towels! (kicks his foot against the pans under the sink.) not much of a housekeeper, would you say, ladies? the excerpt contributes most to which feminist theme? women artists face difficult paths when pursuing careers. women need to feel they are determining their own fate. women are often expected to conform to roles set by society. women often suffer great abuses in male-dominated societies.

to sum that up the answer is C.)

because you are a boy

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
