But the bicycle craze had a more lasting impact on women’s clothing than just the use of bloomers. Thanks in large part to cyc

ling, the innovation of rational dress reformers were starting to take effect by the end of the 1890s. Corsets were on their way out, dresses were getting shorter, and women no longer wore the heavy, bulky undergarments that gave them round, unnatural shapes. These changes went a long way toward unburdening women and setting the stage for them to be healthier and more active in the coming century.Based on the excerpt, women in the 1890s became more independent and their lives improved as a result of1. a rise in the popularity of bicycles.2. a rise in the popularity of corsets.3. cycling becoming less socially acceptable.4. clothing becoming more restrictive.

Answer:

Based on the excerpt, the best answer is:

1. a rise in the popularity of bicycles.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, the rise in the popularity of bicycles helped freeing women from heavy clothes and undergarments. Since they would hinder women who wished to ride bicycles, corsets, long dresses, and bulky undergarments were quickly substituted by healthier, lighter pieces of clothing that allowed women to ride bicycles easily.

PLZZ HELP What is the importance of the similarities found between the English root words and those of Greek, Latin, and German?
miv72 [106K]

Answer

English (and most other Western-European languages) adopted many words from Latin and Greek throughout history, because especially Latin was the Lingua Franca all through Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and later.

However, English has many more words borrowed from Latin than have other Germanic languages, which it owes to the conquest of England by the Normans in the year 1066. The Normans spoke Norman French, which was still much closer to Latin than modern French, especially in spelling. From then on, French was used as the language of administration for a while, and much of this was incorporated into English even as the influence of Norman culture in England waned.

Note that, very, very long ago, in prehistoric times, the Germanic and Italic branches (the ancestor of Latin) diverged from the (supposed) proto-language called Proto-Indo-European. That's why e.g. English, Greek, Russian, Persian, Urdu, and Latin have certain things in common, although most similarities are now only apparent to the trained eye. The similarities you see between English and Latin are mostly caused by what happened after 1066.
