Introduction to Modern Drama Study

Question 7 • RMA FL-1001370-English 3 Semester 2

Read the excerpt from Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique.For human suffering there is a reason; perhaps the reason has not been found because the right questions have not been asked, or pressed far enough. I do not accept the answer that there is no problem because American women have luxuries that women in other times and lands never dreamed of; part of the strange newness of the problem is that it cannot be understood in terms of the age-old material problems of man: poverty, sickness, hunger, cold. The women who suffer this problem have a hunger that food cannot fill.Based on Friedan’s word choice, which best describes the tone of the excerpt?

Answer
A
hostile

pleasant
