Answer:

non-property-owning men

Explanation:

After the American revolution, there was a rise of political parties and with it an expansion of voting rights for white men. After the war was over, many states retained some property requirements for one to vote, as a way to prevent poor people from voting.

At that time, Republicans believed that citizens were required to have an economic stake in society in order to be trusted to vote wisely. If a voter did not have economic independence, the voter would be manipulated to vote in a certain party.

But with the construction of many industries, laborers started to get money and buy things. Because of that, economic status disappeared as a foundation for citizenship and by 1840 90% of adult white men could vote.

Read the passage from My Antonia. Those girls had grown up in the first bitter-hard times, and had got little schooling themselv

SOVA2 [1]

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.
