Poverty and unemployment leave people out of money and often unable to cover even their most basic necessities, such as food and shelter (meaning the bills for the water and gas). This means that they are also unable to cover the costs of the funeral for their family members and might be forced to leave it to the state who might not be able to provide the best service possible (and might for example perform the ceremony next to a loud street)
Answer:
A). The author describes the short-term effects of having a bicycle as a child.
Explanation:
The statement that most aptly characterizes this excerpt would be that 'the author recounts the short-term outcomes of having a bicycle as a child.' The author highlights that 'she had no knowledge of the part the bicycle had played as a vehicle of change for turn-of-the-20th-century women' as the possessions of bicycles worked as a 'measure of independence' for them. It helped them in freeing from the overpowering bonds and it rather allows her to go and buy wafers and even ice-cream for herself. Thus, the author highlights how bicycles have played a major role in offering women their due freedom and liberty to go out and do what they want. Therefore, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
