Use the passage to answer the question. "We have been driven to the conclusion that only through legislation can any improvement

be effected, and that that legislation can never be effected until we have the same power as men have to bring pressure to bear upon our representatives and upon Governments to give us the necessary legislation. . . . We are here not because we are law-breakers; we are here in our efforts to become law-makers."—Emmeline Pankhurst, October 21, 1908 Which statement best summarizes the main idea of the above quotation? Women should be equal to men in every aspect of their lives. Women are justified in breaking the law if that will help bring them equality. Women must have the right to vote in order to win improvements in their lives. Women cannot reform society unless they run for higher office.

Women must have the right to vote in order to win improvements in their lives.

Not much to say about this question except you need to actually read the passage and then see what option matches the passage. So let's do that.


Women should be equal to men in every aspect of their lives. 
* This is not mentioned, although it can be implied. Let's see if there's a better option.

Women are justified in breaking the law if that will help bring them equality. 
* The passage doesn't claim that breaking the law is justified. So it's a bad choice.

Women must have the right to vote in order to win improvements in their lives.
* The phrase "... same power as men have to bring pressure to bear upon our representatives ..." is a MAJOR clue. How you get someone in office to pay attention to you? Answer: By voting for someone else. And if women don't have the vote, then they can't bring pressure to bear because the representatives won't care about women because women can't do anything to replace them with someone who does care. So this is the correct choice.

Women cannot reform society unless they run for higher office.
* The passage doesn't speak of running for office, but instead speaks of bringing pressure upon those who are in office. So this is a bad choice.

maria [59]

The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise military offensive by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor (Hawaii) on the morning of Sunday, December 7, 1941.
