Naomi has been assigned to write a short story for her English class, and she has chosen to write a mystery. Which opening sente

nce would be best if she wants to create a mood of suspense?
A.
The lone streetlight barely lit the sidewalk in front of her as Tess hurried along in the dark, praying the footsteps she heard were just echoes of her own on the pavement.

The Renaissance was a period of tremendous achievements in the fields of art, politics, literature, and philosophy. It was a tim
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Women's lives did not improve at all if anything they were worsened. Rich woman during the renaissance had very little say in anything and was taught to help their husband run a business and take care of him and the house. The poor woman had no say in anything they only had to choices at life, they could either be a housewife and take care of the kids and the house ore they had to become a nun. The poor woman could not be single or have any rights.

The role of women was very scarce. Women were supposed to be seen and not heard. Rarely seen at that. Women were to be prim and proper, the ideal women. Females were able to speak their minds but their thoughts and ideas were shaped by men. Mostly everything women did had input given by men. Women were controlled by her parents from the day she is born until the day she is married, then she would be handed directly to her husband so he could take over that role. In the time of the renaissance, women were considered to legally belong to their husbands. Women were supposed to be typical ‘housewives.'

Though women were inferior to men, women in different classes had different roles. Low-class women were expected to be housewives and take care of everything to do with the house. The expectation of working-class women was a little bit different. These women were expected to work for their husbands and help them run their business. They would work alongside their husbands and then go home and take care of the household. Upper-class women may have had servants and workers working for them but the women were still expected to take care of the household.

Women could not work by themselves. Neither could they live alone if they were not married. If a woman was single, she was made to move in with one of her male relatives or join a convent and become a nun. There was no other option at this time for women.

In conclusion in different classes of women, the only women that were allowed to express themselves were upper-class women, but not sufficiently. The existence of women was there but it was a marginal existence. Very rarely would a woman of less than upper class be seen or heard expressing herself. It was unheard of. When women did express themselves, what they would express was tainted by male influence.
