Answer:
(C) Women desire freedom to make their own choices
Explanation:
Wife of Bath – known officially as The Wife of Bath’s Tale – is a story that can be found in the Canterbury Tales, a book written by Geoffrey Chaucer during the 14th century. The main theme of the tale is women’s life during the Late Middle Ages – with emphasis on how women are treated lesser than their male counterparts. The story itself is depicted through the adventures of a knight in King Arthur and Queen Guinevere’s court, who after being found guilty of raping a woman, was given the task of having to find out what it is that women truly desire.
The poem Testimonial by Rita Dove expressed the overwhelming
joy that life can bring to one person. She had expressed how she sees the little
things that many had failed to notice. Dove accepts what life can offer her and
she accepts it with an open-heart
Essay:
I'd give the money to an organisation working on recovering the damage we did to Earth. That would have to be an organisation cleaning oceans, planting trees and teaching people about the importance of a sustainable and healthy environment.
I'd donate it to a small organisation, nothing too famous. A small group of people doing what they believe is right, working hard, to clear what other, brainless people, have done.
I'd hope that the money could be an incentive for them to continue doing what they do, and to continue gathering people into a movement our faith and the one of our planet depends on.
Notes:
- That is MY way of using easy-gained, extra 20k dollars. If you do not agree, please give me an idea of what you'd do and I'll hand in a better adapted essay.
- Since we're asked to write a descriptive essay, I tried to describe the organisation as much as I could. If you think you could add anything using the same thinking-line, please do.
Hope it helped,

Answer:
― Harriet Ann Jacobs, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl.
Explanation:
This is a piece of Literature that also works as resistance in the Anti-Slavery Movement. Harriet Ann shows this by describing how she was a victim of Dr. Flint's sexual harassment and the desperation that came alongside her actions. She shows how Dr. Flint's wife was embittered and unhappy by knowing that her husband was a philanderer, knowing that there wasn't anything to be done.
"(...)it contaminates the daughters, and makes the wives wretched".
Jacobs also writes that this is a recurring phenomenon because sons learn from seeing their father's actions, that abusing their female slaves is an acceptable norm; that it's natural.
"(...) makes white fathers cruel and sensual; the sons violent and licentious"
