Answer and Explanation:
Step one: The female representations described above challenge the notion that independence defines the American spirit.
Step two: Women who do not have the standard defended by society are deprived of independence and freedom.
Step three:
The three works described above feature characters, women who are far away from their societies and who are deprived of their freedom because they dare to be independent in someone in their lives and this identity is outside the standards defended by American society. This challenges the notion preached since the early days that independence defines the American spirit.
The independence of women in the works mentioned above is approached in different ways and reveal sexual independence, the protection of loved ones, the domination of a family and even religious freedom, however the result of these factors is the same. Regardless of what women have done, they are limited, ostracized and suffer a strong prejudice from American society, which wants women to put themselves in patterns of submission and invisibility.
However, the American society portrayed in these works does not recognize its hypocrisy in assuming that it is being challenged with the concept of freedom and independence that is preached in the country, but they place the blame of these women on the society they were generated in, in religion and even in them themselves to justify the injustices to which they are subjected.
<u>Answer</u>:
"A: Cody is laughing
" is an inappropriate shift in the verb tense in the given sentence "Cody is laughing at Megan's joke when suddenly the phone went dead, He tries calling her back, but she is not answering."
<u>Explanation</u>:
The reference of the sentence is that Cody was laughing at Meghan’s joke, i.e. something happened in the past and the phone went dead. Now, when he is trying to call her back, she is not answering. The second part of the sentence when Cody is trying to call her again and she not answering is in present tense, so options B and C are in correct verb tense. Option D is also correct, because action happened in the past, so ‘went’ is used in “phone went dead”.
Incorrect verb tense is “Cody is laughing” as this action happened in the past and it should be “Cody was laughing”.
