Read this quotation from an interview with bharati mukherjee and answer the question. the kind of criticism from literary critics and theorists who have encountered my own work stems from their belief that if you're india-born, you must write about india and you must write about an indian woman or peasants being it's absurd, when you think that i'm writing about the post-1965 immigration-transformed america, and that the majority of south asians granted visas are urban, educated professionals and their families. the aim of fiction is to break down stereotypes. unfortunately, the publishing and academic industries seem to profit more from reinforcing stereotypes. which excerpt from the passage best supports the ideas expressed in this interview? "i was born into a class that did not live in its native language. i was born into a city that feared its future, and trained me for emigration." "my horoscope, cast by a neighborhood astrologer when i was a week-old infant, predicted that i would be a writer, that i would cross oceans and make my home among aliens." "my literary agenda begins by acknowledging that america has transformed me. it does not end until i show how i (and the hundreds of thousands like me) have transformed america." "for all the hope and energy i have placed in the process of immigration and accommodation – i’m a person who couldn’t ride a public bus when she first arrived, and now i’m someone who watches tractor pulls on obscure cable channels – there are parts of me that remain indian."

Read this excerpt from wheels of change by sue macy. that said, it's hard to grasp the full extent of the bicycle's impact on americans in the late 19th century—particularly female americans. imagine a population imprisoned by their very clothing; the stiff corsets, heavy skirts, and voluminous petticoats that made it difficult to take a deep breath, let alone exercise. add to that the laws and social conventions that cemented a man's place as head of the household and holder of the purse strings. how suffocated women must have felt. and how liberated they must have been as they pedaled their wheels toward new horizons. what is the central idea of the excerpt
