In A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, Wollstonecraft contrasts her logic and reasoning with

Answers

In a vindication of the rights of woman, wollstonecraft contrast her logic and reasoning with a hybrid tone that combines rational argument with fervent rhetoric sensibility. This approach was really different from the common approach of philosophical writing during that period

The work of Mary Wollstonecraft published in 1972 Vindication of the Rights of Woman: with strictures on Political and Moral Subjects contrasts the logic and reasoning with the right of women to education and contribute to society. By the time these were considered rational, abstract, sentimental beings and with little ability to learn beings; Wollstonecraft rejects this thesis defining women with the capacity for analysis and intelligence.
The author claimed that society would progress if women received education since they were responsible for raising children and should be prepared with knowledge for this task.
However in her writings she makes it clear that a man will always be smarter than women even though both are equal human beings and that ignorance is submerged in them, they will always need the guidance of a man.
She criticizes the excessive sentimentality of women and describes them as ignorant slaves but also as capricious tyrants than can manipulate men.

What important fact about Ichabod Crane comes to light in the passage? Ichabod was a just teacher who treated his students impartially.
Ichabod was a good teacher who tried to do right by his students.
Ichabod was a fair teacher who was misunderstood by his students.
Ichabod was an unjust teacher who punished his students with prejudice.

Answers

The passage is here:

Spare the rod and spoil the child."—Ichabod Crane’s scholars certainly were not spoiled. I would not have it imagined, however, that he was one of those cruel potentates of the school, who joy in the smart of their subjects; on the contrary, he administered justice with discrimination rather than severity; taking the burden off the backs of the weak, and laying it on those of the strong. Your mere puny stripling, that winced at the least flourish of the rod, was passed by with indulgence; but the claims of justice were satisfied by inflicting a double portion on some little, tough, wrong-headed, broad-skirted Dutch urchin, who sulked and swelled and grew dogged and sullen beneath the birch. All this he called "doing his duty by their parents;" and he never inflicted a chastisement without following it by the assurance, so consolatory to the smarting urchin, that "he would remember it, and thank him for it the longest day he had to live."

The correct answer is "Ichabod was a fair teacher who was misunderstood by his students."

In which portion of the essay should you address a counterargument? a. introductory paragraph
b. body paragraph one
c. body paragraph three
d. concluding paragraph

Answers

Usually, the rule of thumb indicates the following:
1- Introduction
You say what you are trying to do with your text and how you are trying to accomplish it.
2- Body [1]
You introduce your topic and your argument [thesis] and introduce supporting detail.
3- Body [2]
You elaborate on the supporting detail.
4- Body [3]
You state what your opposing party believes regarding your argument, and refute it.
5- Conclusion
You reflect on what you have stated to accomplish the objective mentioned in the introduction, and how you have accomplished it.

The reason why you should not address a counterargument before/after where is suggested is because it's counterproductive to the purpose of the segments in the structure. If you do it in the second paragraph of your body, you didn't allow yourself space to support your thesis. Similarly, the introduction and conclusion paragraphs are not there for you to address anything, so doing so would be incoherent.

The answer is C. Body paragraph 3
