Read this excerpt from "Famine Is a Feminist Issue."
That's why empowering women is now one of the main solutions for feeding the world. Globablly, most countries have achieved a birth rate at replacement levels, about two children per woman. But in sub-Saharan Africa, the [birth] rate is 5.6 children per woman, largely because girls are not aware of reproductive choices and drop out of school at a young age and have kids. [Birth] rates are highest in countries where women don't have access to birth control or maternal and child health care. Babies often die before they turn five years old, and mothers overcompensate in family planning in hopes that at least a few kids will survive to adulthood. Unless the status of women changes in sub-Saharan Africa, we're going to have a lot more than one billion hungry by midcentury.

Ead this excerpt from the introduction to wheels of change by sue macy. imagine a population imprisoned by their very clothing; the stiff corsets, heavy skirts, and voluminous petticoats that made it difficult to take a deep breath, let alone exercise. add to that the laws and social conventions that cemented a man's place as head of the household and holder of the purse strings. how suffocated women must have felt. and how liberated they must have been as they pedaled their wheels toward new horizons. why does the author include this excerpt?

Which line from the story of my life by helen keller is an example of a simile? during the whole trip i did not have one fit of temper, there were so many things to keep my mind and fingers busy. i was like that ship before my education began, only i was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was. one day, while i was playing with my new doll, miss sullivan put my big rag doll into my lap also, spelled "d-o-l-l" and tried to make me understand that "d-o-l-l" applied to both. child as i was, i at once felt the tenderness and sympathy which endeared dr. bell to so many hearts, as his wonderful achievements enlist their admiration.
