Question 8 • Language Arts 11

Which best describes why Truth describes her personal experiences in "Ain't I a Woman?"

Answer
A
to suggest that she is more qualified than others to discuss the issue of equal rights
B
to encourage people to feel sorry for her and grant her what she wants
C
to provide credible proof that women are not less physically capable than men.
D
to entertain her audience by recounting tense and emotional stories

Explanation

Truth uses examples from her own life—such as doing hard labor and enduring hardship—to challenge the claim that women are weak and should have fewer rights than men. Her experiences serve as evidence for her argument, so the best choice is “to provide credible proof that women are not less physically capable than men.”
