"The Evolution of a New Woman" centers around the idea of gaining suffrage for women. The author discusses how women are being highly sexualized and demeaned, and it is taking away from their well-being, and from their ability to even succeed in areas where women were desired to succeed at the time (i.e. if a woman is being oppressed and suppressed, she will likely not be as good as a wife or mother). The text also uses reminders from Irish, British, and American history of groups of people who were pushed to their limits, leading to war and rebellion. These acts as warnings to those who did not wish to grant women the right to vote.
The statement that best describes the excerpt is "This is the minor premise of the Declaration of Independence," as stated in option A and explained below.
<h3>What is a minor premise?</h3>
A premise is an affirmation or statement that functions as the basis for a conclusion. We can have a major premise and a minor premise. Take a look at the examples below:
- Some animals are mammals. --> Major premise.
- All cats are mammals. --> Minor premise.
- Some animals are cats. --> Conclusion.
As we can see above, the minor premise is related to the major premise. With that in mind, we can see that the excerpt from the Declaration of Independence is a minor premise. It is related to the major premise that the 13 colonies should break free from England.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.
