The "curse" of the Old Lady Gray was that Sophie would act and look like a 90-year-old woman.
What prompted the curse?
Sophie Hatter is a young woman who allegedly fell victim to a spell performed by the elderly woman who was once known as the Witch of the Waste.
Sophie never had enough confidence, but by continuing to do things or go on adventures with Howl, it was reported that she finally broke her curse and had a lot of confidence.
So take note that she had the appearance of an elderly woman lacking in confidence and was saddled with old age.
As a result, Sophie will act and look like a 90-year-old woman thanks to The Old Lady Gray's "curse."

Answer:
Check the answer and explanations below
Explanation:
The author's purpose is to show how the women and blacks have been able to prove wrong the racist and sexist assumptions of the American Aviation by ensuring that they continue to remain relevant in the aviation industry. The sole aim is to prove that performance is not limited by sex or skin color.
The women and African - Americans did not allow the wrong sexist and racist assumptions upon which the American aviation was based to debar them from making their marks in the aviation industry.
This is evident from the author's statements "American aviation was from its very beginnings marred with sexist and racist assumptions" and "...Yet despite these prevailing prejudices, the dream and the desire to fly stayed alive among women and African-
Americans." and
"When I said you were a friend of Tom's, he started to abandon the whole idea. He doesn't know very much about Tom, though he says he's read a Chicago paper for years just on the chance of catching a glimpse of Daisy's name" (p.152)
In looking at the answer choices, a few can be dismissed immediately. From the passage it doesn't seem that the dismissal of the narrator's questions affects her too much. Therefore we can eliminate answers that show a drastic change in the narrator's emotions (the narrator feeling inadequate, lacking control, and fearing she may be doomed). The only answer left is that the narrator is dismissed. In gothic literature women are often seen as helpless, innocent victims.
