Question

Senator Warren states that women are "ready to fight back" against unequal pay. Is this a valid argument supported by accurate evidence?
a.No; Warren weakens her point by noting that "Women are the main breadwinners, or joint breadwinners, in two-thirds of the families across the country."
b.Yes; Warren supports her point by noting that the Paycheck Fairness Act will "ensure that salary differences have something to do with the actual job that they are doing."
c. Yes; Warren supports her point by noting that the Paycheck Fairness Act was introduced "to give women the tools to combat wage discrimination."
d. No; Warren weakens her point by noting that "Today, more young women go to college than men."

Answer 1

Answer: C

Explanation: I took the test.

Answer 2

A and D can be thrown out immediately...she is a Senator she better be supporting her arguments with actual evidence. Also, in the text the paragraph that says women are "ready to fight back" includes the evidence stated in options B and C. Option C is not as strong because it just says that the Paycheck Fairness Act gives "women the tools" but not actually what those tools. B is the best answer because it explains what those tools do.
