Passage 2 — from Catherine Beecher, “Treatise on the Domestic Economy”It appears, then, that it is in America, alone, that women

are raised to equality with the other sex; and that, both in theory and practice, their interests are regarded as of equal value. They are made subordinate in station, only where a regard to their best interests demands it, while, as if in compensation for this, by custom and courtesy, they are always treated as superiors. Universally in this country, through every class of society, precedence is given to woman, in all the comforts, conveniences, and courtesies, of life.In civil and political affairs, American women take no interest or concern, except so far as they sympathize with their family and personal friends; but in all cases, in which they do feel a concern, their opinions and feelings have a consideration, equal, or even superior, to that of the other sex.In matters pertaining to the education of their children, in the selection and support of a clergyman; in all benevolent enterprises, and in all questions relating to morals or manners, they have a superior influence. In such concerns, it would be impossible to carry a point, contrary to their judgment and feelings; while an enterprise, sustained by them, will seldom fail of success.If those who are bewailing themselves over the fancied wrongs and injuries of woman in this Nation, could only see things as they are, they would know, that, whatever remnants of a barbarous or aristocratic age may remain in our civil institutions, in reference to the interests of women, it is only because they are ignorant of them, or do not use their influence to have them rectified; for it is very certain that there is nothing reasonable, which American women would unite in asking, that would not readily be bestowed.The preceding remarks, then, illustrate the position, that the democratic institutions of this Country are in reality no other than the principles of Christianity carried into operation, and that they tend to place woman in her true position in society, as having equal rights with the other sex; and that, in fact they have secured to American women a lofty and fortunate position, which, as yet, has been attained by the women of no other nation.Analysis1. When Beecher speaks of women’s “best interests” and their “true position in society,” what does she mean?2. According to Beecher, what trade-offs must American women make to obtain their “lofty and fortunate position” in society? In your view, is it a fair exchange?3. According to Beecher, in what realms do women naturally and legitimately exercise power?4. On what grounds does Beecher base her faith that American women can attain anything they “reasonably” ask, and how does she explain any “remnants” of bad treatment that might remain in the present?

Answer:

D) Techwood Housing Project

Explanation:

In his speech, Roosevelt refers to the Techwood Housing Project.

The program The National Industrial Recovery Act had the duty to fund clearing the slums in the US, and the area that was in the plan to be cleaned was the one around Techwood Dr.

<u>This happened and, that is how Techwood Homes were erected.</u><u> The homes were meant for low income earning families, mostly those who previously lived in the mentioned slums; the goal was for them to have the proper homes with pluming and electrics, garages, laundry facilities and services such as kindergartens, school, and library. </u>

<u />

However, later on, Techwood homes again transformed into low-income neighborhoods, resembling slums, and was demolished in 1996, because of the Olympics.

Dubbing

Explanation:

<u>It is a common technique used in cinema to paste one person's voice over another to produce a desirable effect including the emulation of a proper voice for a specific role as is the case here.</u>

This was done to be as authentic about Welles' voice as was possible and not to break the immersion of the audience watching the film and familiar with Orson Welles.
