Answer 1

During the Second World War when men went off to war and women filled their jobs in the workplace.

Answer: C. Men went off to war, leaving women to fill their jobs in the work place.

Explanation:

The war created demand for workers in the factories to make weapons and war equipment. Thus there was an increased need for labor. Before the war the American women were expected to stay at home take care of their families.

The demand for workforce during the war encouraged many women to take up jobs in factories and civil service. Women also joined the army in large numbers. The war thus changed the status of women in the American society.
