Read this excerpt from Susan B. Anthony's "Is it a Crime for a Citizen of the United States to Vote?" and complete the sentences

that follow.
But is urged, the use of the masculine pronouns he, his and him, in all the constitutions and laws, is proof that only men were meant to be included in their provisions. If you insist on this version of the letter of the law, we shall insist that you be consistent, and accept the other horn of the dilemma, which would compel you to exempt women from taxation for the support of the government, and from penalties for the violation of laws. . . .

So long as any classes of men were denied their right to vote, the government made a show of consistency, by exempting them from taxation. When a property qualification of $250 was required of black men in New York, they were not compelled to pay taxes, so long as they were content to report themselves worth less than that sum; but the moment the black man died, and his property fell to his widow or daughter, the black woman's name would be put on the assessor's list, and she be compelled to pay taxes on the same property exempted to her husband. The same is true of ministers in New York. So long as the minister lives, he is exempted from taxation on $1,500 of property, but the moment the breath goes out of his body, his widow's name will go down on the assessor's list, and she will have to pay taxes on the $1,500. So much for the special legislation in favor of women.

Susan B. Anthony makes two compelling arguments to suggest that women should be given the right to vote. She attacks the argument of the anti-suffragists that (_____) She argues that since (_____) all women should be afforded the right to vote.

EMPTY BOX #1 CHOICES : Women are not entitled to vote because all the laws were created by men for men, Women are not entitled to the same rights as men because all the laws say they are inferior, Women are not entitled to the same rights as men because all the laws do not mention females, Women are not entitled to vote because the word "she" was removed from the statues book

EMPTY BOX #2 CHOICES: Women are exempted from paying all the taxes because females are not mentioned in tax laws, Women are forced to pay all the taxes despite there being no mention of females in tax laws, Women are not allowed to inherit property despite the mention of family members in property laws, Women are not allowed to hold and inherit property despite there being no mention of females in property laws

An unfortunate experience
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The worst day that I experienced during my field experience at Middle School of Pacolet was the day that Mr. Wilson was absent. Mr. Wilson is the type that rarely never misses a day, so there had to be something important to occur for him to not be present. On this day, everything started out just fine, but then someone decided to act up. Class started out normal with the substitute taking attendance and then gave an explanation of what the class was supposed to do for the day. Theie assignment that day was a writing prompt. The students took a little longer than usual to get settled down, but once they were given permission for them to listen to music while they worked, everyone got quiet. It remained like this for a majority of the class period, but then a student decided to turn his music up loud. As expected, another student two rows over asked him if he could turn his music down. Instead of doing what was asked of him, he got an attitude and said, “Are you going to make me?”

The other student said “No, but I’m asking if you could please turn it down.” The girl asked the same question, and when he didn’t answer they went back to their work. All throughout this, the sub did nothing but watch. Next, another student turned his music up loud, I guess to annoy the girl, and then he was told to turn his music down. He didn’t ask the girl, he asked the guy.

Then, from what I saw, the same boy as before was talking to a friend, and the girl said “Do you have something to say to me? You need to stop mumbling and just say it to my face.” I guess she assumed that the two were talking about her. And the guy replied, “WILL-YOU-TURN-YOUR-MUSIC-DOWN?”

And again she asked, “Are you going to make me?” At this point I looked at the sub, expecting him to do something, but of course he didn’t. So for the rest of class, the girl did her work with her music turned up loud and the boy tried his very hardest to ignore it. That day, I was very shocked at the behavior of the girl. Before this incident, I had rarely ever heard her talk. That was by far the worst day I had at the field experience.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!
