The correct answers are the following.

In the excerpt of “The Life of Charlotte Bronte” by Elizabeth Gaskell, the meaning of the underlined words “sagacity” and “bestowing” are:  

In this excerpt, the word sagacity means intelligence, acuity.

In this excerpt, the word bestowing means grant, confer.

Sagacity/intelligence is used in the text to say that the Yorkshiremen have a dogged power of will that they have as a right of birth. Bestowing is used in the text to say that their skills are bestowed/granted because they rarely require the assistance of others.  

“The Life of Charlotte Bronte” was written by Elizabeth Gaskell in 1857. It is Bronte’s biography.

If readers want to learn more about the Johnstone family, they should read <em>Examining the Family Dynamic.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

The given question refers to the following excerpt from a research paper:

The Johnstone family of Cheyenne, Wyoming has created a "family economy” in which members barter their services and homemade goods. The teenager’s babysitting services are as valuable as dad’s breakfast crepes. Even the youngest member has found ways to contribute by bathing the dog and tidying rooms (Ramirez 109).

Works Cited

Dunn, Clara. Sibling Rivalry. Toronto: Modern Press, 1999. Print.

Ramirez, Ana. Examining the Family Dynamic. New York: Prestige Publishers,  2011. Print.

Thornton, Davis. Teaching Children Independence. Boston: Society Press, 2002. Print.

Vera, Nikko. Benefits of Household Chores. Providence: Union House, 2007. Print.

As possible answers to the question, what the readers should read if they want to learn more about the Johnstone family, you were given the following options:

  • Sibling Rivalry
  • Examining the Family Dynamic
  • Teaching Children Independence
  • Benefits of Household Chores

We can see that after the text, at the end of the passage, there is <em>(Ramirez 109).</em><em>  </em>This states who the author of a cited work is, and on what page the information the passage is based on can be found. This means that Ramirez is the author of a book that can tell us something more about the Johnstone family. The book in question is <em>Examining the Family Dynamic</em>. That is the correct answer.
