The correct answer is:
It is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.
"My Antonia" is a novel by Willa Cather in 1918. The novel is about the story of the pioneers of Nebraska and their life in the Old West, making emphasis on the role of the women during that time. This excerpt mainly explains how despite their low resources, the girls learned from life, from poverty, from their mothers and grandmothers and makes a comparison of how they were even more interesting than the younger brothers and sisters who had advantages were not better than them. Which supports the theme that is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.
The second one is reflecting that regardless of what people are paid…they will eventually be replaced by automated machines who are cheaper to replace/repair than people. They need no training and only software updates to keep opening smoothly. Machines don’t get sick…they don’t need down time…they don’t need days off. So they, in the long room, are worth the money to replace people.
