Choice C is the best answer. In (lines 25-30"the...conserving"), the authors of Passage 1 provide evidence that women should run households and raise children because these roles do not require "strenuous habits and onerous duties."Choices A, B, and D do not provide the best evidence that running a household and raising children entail very few activities that are difficult or unpleasant; rather, these lines offer general information about the differences between the sexes.
