The answer is A. his embarrassment about the cause of his beloved father's death.

The story revolves around Jerome's father dying because he was crushed by a pig that fell from a balcony. Jerome used to idolize his father, perhaps partially because he also lost his mother when he was very young and his father was the only parent he had. As he grew older, he realized people's reactions to this event was laughter. He became embarrased, and this caused him angst.

Which details from Chapter 3 of Wheels of Change does the image help the reader better understand? Check all that apply.
Rasek [7]

Answer:

In the 1890s, riding a bicycle in traditional clothing could be hazardous to a woman's health.

This combination of a shortened dress and flowing trousers became known as the Bloomer costume.

<em>"Taken together, these floor-length petticoats and the dress that covered them could weigh 25 pounds—even more when the unfortunate woman got caught in a rainstorm. Plus they were unsanitary. During a casual stroll, an unsuspecting fashion plate could pick up cigar ends, cigarette butts, discarded food, tiny insects, and animal droppings as her clothing swept the ground."</em>

In this excerpt from Wheels of change we can see that the clothing in the times for women were dangerous and started to change because it was easier for them to dress different so they could ride a bike.
