Answer:

Explanation:

Both stories are at their cores about women in unhappy, unequal marriages. While Mrs. Mallard and Desiree both love their husbands, they are not allowed to be their equals. Mr. Mallard dominates Mrs. Mallard; even though he is not a bad or abusive man, he is still in control of everything Mrs. Mallard does and she realizes that being widowed will allow her to take hold of her own destiny. Should she want to travel, she does not need the permission of her husband. Desiree is even more dominated by Armand, to the point where she does not stick up for herself or her own child when Armand banishes them from his life due to the child's clear mixed ancestry.

Both women face death as a result of male tyranny. Mrs. Mallard has a heart attack when her husband comes home alive, both from the sudden shock of his appearance and from her dreams of liberation being dashed.

I looked this question up and was able to find two answer options for it:

A. Douglass and Jacobs both wrote important autobiographies about their experience as slaves.

B. Douglass and Jacobs both escaped from slavery in the 1800's.

Answer:

The main idea of the passage is:

A. Douglass and Jacobs both wrote important autobiographies about their experience as slaves.

Explanation:

From the passage, we can safely infer that both Douglass and Jacobs escaped slavery in the 1800's taking into consideration the year they were born. However, that is not the focus of the paragraph. Notice how the author compares Douglass' and Jacobs' lives, focusing especially on the fact that they both wrote autobiographies and became supporters of the antislavery movement. This is the main idea of the passage: that Douglass and Jacobs become authors and that they described their own experience as slaves in their books.
