Answer: B is correct, "During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat."

Explanation:

The words vacation and out of town are repetitive, and therefore unnecessary. The words repeated and over and over again are the same case. When you remove both of those, sentence B best portrays the most concise sentence.

Hope this helps! Please rate brainliest! :)

Answer:

B. During the four days that we were on vacation, my dog refused to eat.

Explanation:

Generally, when you want something to be easier to understand, avoid repetitive information, and don't use passive voice. A passive voice indirectly refers to something, like "my homework has been completed", rather than "I've done my homework".

In this, there are 2 key pieces of information that should be clear in the answer:

They were on vacation.

The dog refused to eat.

A. is repetitive because it says that they were out of town on vacation- by being on vacation, it's implied that you're out of town (although there are some exceptions).

C. has the same problem as A, but concisely explains that the dog didn't eat.

D. has both of the problems of A, and seems like a word by word paraphrase of the original.

I hope this helps!

Summarize one of the causes of women's issues and how<br><br> Steinem frames it. Cite your work.
valkas [14]

Answer:

One of the causes of women's issues is the myth that women are biologically inferior to men. This myth has led to years and years of oppression from men to women: not letting women vote, having to stay home and therefore not letting women work, and also men believing they can do whatever they want with women just because they are "better".

Steinem explains how women survived specific tragedies better than men and how women live longer than men, which proves women aren't inferior. However, she doesn't want to repeat what men did: <em>"I don't want to prove the superiority of one sex to another. That would only be repeating a male mistake." </em>

Explanation:

To complete this exercise, you have to <u>read Gloria Steinem's testimony</u> before the Senate hearings on the  Equal Rights Amendment in 1970. In her testimony, she explains the myths that led to the oppression of women and she also relates it with the oppression of black people, and specifically black women.
