This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the excerpt from Eighty Years and More: Reminiscences, 1815-1897.

"My father," I replied, "prefers boys; he wishes I was one, and I intend to be as near like one as possible. I am going to ride on horseback and study Greek. Will you give me a Greek lesson now, doctor? I want to begin at once." "Yes, child," said [Rev. Simon Hosack], throwing down his tool, "come into my library and we will begin without delay." He entered fully into the feeling of suffering and sorrow which took possession of me when I discovered that a girl weighed less in the scale of being than a boy, and he praised my determination to prove the contrary.

Based on the excerpt, which best states what Stanton wants to prove to her father, the Reverend, and society?

A. Girls and boys are interested in the same hobbies.

B. Girls and boys need the same amount of encouragement.

C. Girls and boys are equally intelligent and able.

D. Girls and boys have equally deep emotions.

Answer:

The option that best states what Stanton wants to prove is:

C. Girls and boys are equally intelligent and able.

Explanation:

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in 1815. She was an abolitionist, a suffragist, and a social activist. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, she is telling readers about the time when she wanted to do what boys did. She wanted to ride horses and learn Greek because she wanted to prove to her father, to the Reverend, and to society that boys and girls can do the same things. To her, boys and girls are equally intelligent and able. However, she knows that's not the general opinion. More importantly, she knows that's not what her father thinks, and that's what hurts her the most.
