This excerpt is from Griselda’s Tale, a European Folklore written by Giovanni Boccaccio. Griselda was married to Gualtieri and her patience and obiedience were severely tested when her children were taken away from her to be killed. Gualtieri did not kill them however, but kept them in another town. When Griselda’s daughter was 12 years old Gualtieri brought her back and presented her to Griselda as his new bride. When Griselda did not object to this he revealed the daughter to the mother and restored her role as a wife and mother.
Question: Which option identifies an inference one could draw about the ladies based upon the information in the excerpt?
Answer: A. They place a high value on material possessions.
Answer:
D. by offering equality under the law to all citizens.
Explanation:
The 14th Amendment is a statute that grants American citizenship to people born or naturalized in the U.S., gives them the right to due process and equal protection under the laws, and prohibits states from abridging “the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.” In theory, its ratification expanded civil rights protection by offering equality under the law to all citizens. In reality, however, not all citizens were treated fairly and equal under the law.

Common Sense
Common Sense
was an instant best-seller. Published in January 1776 in Philadelphia,
nearly 120,000 copies were in circulation by April. Paine's brilliant
arguments were straightforward. He argued for two main points: (1)
independence from England and (2) the creation of a democratic republic.
Paine avoided flowery prose. He wrote in the language of the people,
often quoting the Bible in his arguments. Most people in America had a
working knowledge of the Bible, so his arguments rang true. Paine was
not religious, but he knew his readers were. King George was "the
Pharaoh of England" and "the Royal Brute of Great Britain." He touched a
nerve in the American countryside.
