Hey 
Penelope wants to talk to the beggar because she can do so without compromising herself. Women could not talk to men freely in Ancient Greece unless they were so much beneath them that it was of no consequence anymore. She wants to talk to him because there is something that makes her want to, without her knowing the reason. She hopes he might have some information because her time of waiting for her husband is over,she cannot draw her decision out any longer. 
<span>She is desperate and hangs on to a straw. Very human.</span>

Refer to your Expeditions in Reading book for a complete version of this text.
Aleks04 [339]

The main idea of the biography is that Dorothy deserves credit as a pioneer for her accomplishments at NASA. The sentence that confirms this is:

“…Vaughan was both a respected mathematician and NASA's first African-American manager.”

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Dorothy Vaughan's biography wants to show why she was a scientist and someone so important to American society.
  • In addition to having contributed a lot to the work of NASA, Vaughan was a pioneer in that institution.
  • That's because, NASA was an institution dominated by white people, who had more access to higher education and administrative positions.
  • However, Dorothy Vaughan became the first African-American manager that NASA had, in addition to being one of the first women to occupy this position, which makes her a pioneer.

As the central idea of a text is the main subject that the text intends to address, we can affirm that Dorothy Vaughan's pioneering spirit is the central idea of her biography.
