In “Shakespeare’s Sister,” Virginia Woolf argues that women need two things if they are to realize their potential as writers: f
reedom from poverty and _____. a. recognition from their peers
b. freedom from housework
c. a room of their own
d. an end to gender discrimination in the workplace
The correct option is option C ("A room of their own").
In "Shakespeare's Sister", Virginia Woolf creates the imaginary figure of a hypotetical sister for Shakespeare in order to contrast what it would take for a woman to realize herself as a writer as opposed to a male.
The number one thing a woman writer will need would be money.<u> If she's able to rely only on herself to earn her living, she'll get to determine freely what she does with her spare time. Also, </u><u>with a room of her own she'll also be free to form her own opinions without the imposition or influence of anyone else holding her down</u><u>.</u>
The quote from the text that best supports the answer to Part A is: B- "Just as importantly, we need to think of ourselves as the readers of our fears, and how we choose to read our fears can have a profound effect on our lives".
