Read this excerpt from Susan B. Anthony's "Is it a Crime for a Citizen of the United States to Vote?" and complete the sentences

that follow.
But is urged, the use of the masculine pronouns he, his and him, in all the constitutions and laws, is proof that only men were meant to be included in their provisions. If you insist on this version of the letter of the law, we shall insist that you be consistent, and accept the other horn of the dilemma, which would compel you to exempt women from taxation for the support of the government, and from penalties for the violation of laws. . . .

So long as any classes of men were denied their right to vote, the government made a show of consistency, by exempting them from taxation. When a property qualification of $250 was required of black men in New York, they were not compelled to pay taxes, so long as they were content to report themselves worth less than that sum; but the moment the black man died, and his property fell to his widow or daughter, the black woman's name would be put on the assessor's list, and she be compelled to pay taxes on the same property exempted to her husband. The same is true of ministers in New York. So long as the minister lives, he is exempted from taxation on $1,500 of property, but the moment the breath goes out of his body, his widow's name will go down on the assessor's list, and she will have to pay taxes on the $1,500. So much for the special legislation in favor of women.

Susan B. Anthony makes two compelling arguments to suggest that women should be given the right to vote. She attacks the argument of the anti-suffragists that (_____) She argues that since (_____) all women should be afforded the right to vote.

EMPTY BOX #1 CHOICES : Women are not entitled to vote because all the laws were created by men for men, Women are not entitled to the same rights as men because all the laws say they are inferior, Women are not entitled to the same rights as men because all the laws do not mention females, Women are not entitled to vote because the word "she" was removed from the statues book

EMPTY BOX #2 CHOICES: Women are exempted from paying all the taxes because females are not mentioned in tax laws, Women are forced to pay all the taxes despite there being no mention of females in tax laws, Women are not allowed to inherit property despite the mention of family members in property laws, Women are not allowed to hold and inherit property despite there being no mention of females in property laws

What is the best way to revise the paragraph to connect
Basile [38]

This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Read the paragraph from a research-based essay on the benefits of a classroom with a learning center–based layout for preschoolers.

(1) A classroom should be set up as a series of learning centers, which are designated stations that encourage exploration. (2) This layout allows children to move freely throughout the room, delving into activities that interest them and possibly discovering new materials and games. (3) Self-directed play and learning promotes confidence and independence in kids. (4) Students are focused on a task of their choosing, enjoying themselves, and interacting in smaller groups. (5) Discipline problems are often reduced.

What is the best way to revise the paragraph to connect ideas?

by splitting sentence 1 into two sentences to separate the ideas

by splitting sentence 2 into two sentences to separate the ideas

by combining sentences 2 and 3 with the transition word therefore

by combining sentences 4 and 5 with the transition word so

Answer:

The best way to revise the paragraph is by combining sentences 4 and 5 with the transition word "so".

Explanation:

There is no need to breaking sentences 1 and 2 into two sentences with separate ideas. Both sentences are well connected, having clauses with relating ideas that can and should be connected. There is also no need to combine sentences 2 and 3 with the word "therefore". There is no connection between the ideas presented in both sentences that justifies them being combined into one.

<u>On the other hand, it makes perfect sense to combine sentences 4 and 5. When we read sentence 5, it sounds oddly short and lonely. When we read it right after sentence 4, we notice there is a connection between their ideas. Sentence 4 mentions students focusing on their tasks, enjoying themselves. That can lead to fewer disciplined problems, as mentioned in sentence 5. Thus, it is ok to join the sentences with "so":</u>

<em>Students are focused on a task of their choosing, enjoying themselves, and interacting in smaller groups, so discipline problems are often reduced. </em>
