The correct answer is B. It shows that she can break the rules for her principles, revealing that women are as capable as men.

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, it is described how Antigone opposes the actions of Creon as he wants to stop Antigone and her sister from burying his brother. Indeed, even if Ismene (Antigone's sister) expresses they must obey "We are women...We must obey", Antigone decides to break the rules and disobey "I go to bury the brother I love" inspired by love and own principles. These actions indirectly show the reader women can break the rules and be as strong as men. According to this, the universal theme (underlying idea understood in cultures around the word) expressed when Antigone breaks the rules is i"women are as capable as men" (Option B).

Read this example of incorrect sentence structure. Winter is coming I need a new coat. Which revisions best correct the sentence
telo118 [61]

Winter is coming; I need a new coat.

Winter is coming, so I need a new coat.

Because winter is coming, I need a new coat.

The sentence structure of the original sentence is wrong because it is a run on sentence. The sentence has two complete thoughts/ideas without the proper punctuation between them. The first complete thought is "Winter is coming". The second complete thought is "I need a new coat." These need to either be joined with a semicolon or a comma and conjunction. The first answer uses the semicolon to join the two complete ideas into a compound sentence. The second correct answer uses a comma and conjunction, so, to join the two complete ideas. The last correct answer creates a dependent clause by beginning the sentence with "because". Then the comma shows the separation between the dependent clause and the independent clause.

In a well-constructed response, explain how Carrie Chapman Catt, the author of “Address to Congress on Women’s Suffrage,” demons
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

constructing her speech into three main parts that highlights the need for women suffrage.

Explanation:

In her “Address to Congress on Women’s Suffrage”, Carrie Chapman Catt uses the rhetorical device of kairos by constructing her speech into three main parts that highlights the need for women suffrage. This can be seen in the beginning of her speech when she mentions "Three distinct causes made it inevitable."

As kairos as a literary device means using balance and decorum in the speech/writing, Carrie makes sure that her speech contain step by step explanation for every objective. She then finally comes to the end of her speech by projecting the listeners and stakeholders of their part in the bringing a change.

Carrie uses the opportunity of kairos to direct her speech to the listeners and statesmen by asking them whether to support women's suffrage or not. This can be seen in the last lines of her speech "Woman suffrage is coming -- you know it. Will you, Honorable Senators and Members of the House of Representatives, help or hinder it?"
