Read the excerpt from Years of Dust.
Bennett and his agronomists, experts in managing the soil
and improving crop production, wanted to improve conditions
during their own time while also acting to avert future Dust
Bowls. Before going ahead with their plans, however, they
first had to get public opinion on their side. That was no easy
task, for their plans would cost taxpayers money when
money was scarce. Moreover, plains people were set in their
ways. They did not take to change easily, or think much of
"experts" from Washington telling them how to farm. Hoping
to overcome resistance, the Farm Security Administration
hired moviemakers and photographers to gather evidence
illustrating the need for change. These efforts brought two
talented artists instant fame.
to provide an escape from the hard times people faced.
to show how government programs blocked real change.

What are the most ethical decisions for the newspaper to make in this situation? select two options.

Which line from beethoven's moonlight sonata is not an example of the author's use of descriptive language to achieve this purpose.

Which excerpt from shirley chisholm’s speech “equal rights for women” provides support for chisholm’s analysis of how the facts justify her conclusion? `it is true that part of the problem has been that women have not been aggressive in demanding their rights. this was also true of the black population for many years. they submitted to oppression and even cooperated with it. women have done the same thing. `women need no protection that men do not need. what we need are laws to protect working people, to guarantee them fair pay, safe working conditions, protection against sickness and layoffs, and provision for dignified, comfortable retirement. men and women need these things equally. that one sex needs protection more than the other is a male supremacist myth. `it is obvious that discrimination exists. women do not have the opportunities that men do. and women that do not conform to the system, who try to break with the accepted patterns, are stigmatized as ‘‘odd’’ and “unfeminine.” the fact is that a woman who aspires to be chairman of the board, or a member of the house, does so for exactly the same reasons as any man. `as in the field of equal rights for blacks, spanish-americans, the indians, and other groups, laws will not change such deep-seated problems overnight. but they can be used to provide protection for those who are most abused, and to begin the process of evolutionary change by compelling the insensitive majority to reexamine its unconscious attitudes.
