What types of obstacles were there to becoming a female pilot during the time period covered in Women in Aviation?

1 answer:

7 0

Women often had to work hard to prove themselves as capable as men in the field. Biases toward women's traditional roles with men in the cockpit and women serving beverages and blankets have become ingrained, forcing women who want to fly to struggle with the attitudes of both co-workers and society.

Which sentence in this excerpt shows a mocking tone?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The sentence in the excerpt that shows a mocking tone is:

Like he could ever be an astronaut!

Explanation:

To mock means to make fun of something or someone in a derisive, cruel manner. Notice how the sentence "Like he could ever be an astronaut!" mocks the sentence that came before it. It is, in a cruel, sarcastic way, refuting the possibility of Jason becoming an astronaut like he used to dream of. We can easily hear the tone in which the sentence would be spoken in our minds - a laughing, ironic tone.

(1) It was December 7, 1941. (2) The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo was lumbering alon

Nikitich [7]

A) (Sentence 2) The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.

This is the sentence that has a missing necessary comma. Another comma should have been placed after the word Hilo and before was.

The commas in this sentence enclosed nonessential information.

<span>The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo, was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.
</span>
Nonessential information means that if the said phrase is deleted from the sentence, then the sentence would still convey the same message.
<span>
The freighter Florentine was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.</span>

Why is this not an appropriate research paper topic? Why driver education should be offered free of charge at my high school.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Here are the options to the questions:

A. It is too broad of a subject.

B. It is too narrow of a subject.

C. It is not re-searchable.

D. It involves opinion.

The answer is B. It is too narrow of a subject.

A research paper is a form of academic writing based on the original study on a specific topic by its author and the review and interpretation of the results of the research. Based on the above question, the reason why driver education should be offered free of charge at my high school is not an appropriate re-searchable paper is because it is too narrow, not much to put down. The topic is a good argumentative/editorial piece, but not ideal for a research paper.
