<span>By describing and portraying the women in regards to stage direction rather than actual dialogue throughout the piece, it becomes evident that during Glaspell's time era, there was far less equality and opportunity given to women. This is especially true of the specific acting industry in question.</span>

1- The fact that women are often described through stage directions rather than through dialogue reinforces the submissive role women had in Glaspell's time. Women were under the power of men; they had to "follow" men's orders. This is the reason why they were described through directions; they were not expected to speak or to give their opinions. Therefore, their characters could not be described through their words in dialogues.

2- This submissive and obedient description of women sets and fixes a role of women in society. This legitimises that role , so everyone will expect women to behave like that. If a woman happens to rebel against this submissive role, people will tend to underestimate her reaction and will leave her alone.

It's B because the narrator says that they although not getting any inspiration from the Bible God still blesses them "But I knew that He laid upon me less than I deserved." and in the text  <em>Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God </em>it is stated that although humanity has wicked ways and may fall -- burn in hell more precisely -- because of their wicked ways, the only thing that prevents this from happening according to the sermon is God's pleasure, which is held by no force, it is given as God's own choice.

madam [21]

Answer and Explanation:

1. In short, the texts claim that people overcome adversity with resilience. However, resilience is difficult to understand. The texts show how the word "resilience" has become fashionable in recent years, but few people really know them, because very few people needed it.

2. Resilience allows people to face reality, realize that they cannot change it, but have positivity. Positivity is very difficult to establish in a time of adversity, but it must be encouraged, as it shows that this moment will pass and that it is necessary to be strong to pass it.
