The correct answer is: Option C. To persuade readers that women deserve the right to vote.
The author begins their statement by introducing a man's point of view in a scenario where women are allowed to vote, and how that would alter their ego and social behaviour. This is done as a means to present a reason for men not to take a policy like that so lightly. The author then, with the final phrase "Let the majority rule", clearly invites the readers to have their voices heard about the matter, expecting these to be raised on favor of women.

The correct option is “honest portrayal”. Realism is an artistic style that emerged in the 19th century in France, especially in painting and writing. The main purpose of realism is to portray accurately real life and places. Realism is opposed to the Romantic movement so the option “romanticized life experience” is not a characteristic of realism. Exaggeration and melodrama are not related to Realism since it depicts reality in a detailed and honest perspective.
Answer:
The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.
Explanation:
"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.
In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.
