What does the narrator’s description of the wallpaper reveal about the social context of the story?

the husband’s role as both spouse and physician in the narrator’s life
the narrator’s feeling that her life is repetitive and meaningless
the sister-in-law’s daily routine as she observes the narrator
the domestic duties of both men and women of the time

I lie here on this great immovable bed – it is nailed down, I believe – and follow that pattern about by the hour. It is as good as gymnastics, I assure you. I start, we'll say, at the bottom, down in the corner over there where it has not been touched, and I determine for the thousandth time that I WILL follow that pointless pattern to some sort of a conclusion.

I know a little of the principle of design, and I know this thing was not arranged on any laws of radiation, or alternation, or repetition, or symmetry, or anything else that I ever heard of.

–“The Yellow Wallpaper,” Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Read this excerpt from "One Flu over the Cuckoo's Nest."


Scientists debated creating a killer virus to study in the lab. In 2005, the Centers for Disease Control proposed deliberately combining a deadly bird flu virus with a very contagious human flu virus to understand whether and how it might cause a worldwide outbreak, or "pandemic.” Scientists said the lab experiments would help them understand what might already be happening naturally. . . .


But other people thought such research was a terrible idea. What if these viruses escaped the lab by mistake? What if a government or terrorist organization wanted to use the viruses against their enemies?


In 2013, two research groups outside the United States went ahead and conducted their own experiments. One group, led by Ron Fouchier of Erasmus University in the Netherlands, showed that the highly lethal mixed up flu virus could infect and kill ferrets. A few months later, a Chinese group led by Chen Hualan at China’s Harbin Veterinary Research Institute showed the recombined virus could infect and kill guinea pigs. Both groups ran their studies before a worldwide ban on this type of research was put into place in 2012.


One of the main ideas presented in this passage is the controversy over whether or not flu research is safe. What do these paragraphs suggest about the safety of such research?


A) A worldwide ban on dangerous flu research was put into place in 2012, so the threat of people using flu viruses to attack others no longer exists.

B) Since all of the information that could be learned from such research has already been discovered, scientists no longer need to create new flu viruses, and therefore the controversy is over.

C)Although none of the deadly flu viruses made for research have been used by dangerous people, since that possibility still exists, the ban on the research might be important.

D) The research has already resulted in the deaths of animals, so people who once thought creating and researching new flu viruses was important are no longer supporting it.

Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the
proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are
met here on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that
that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate-we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who
struggled, here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here,
but can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have, thus far, so nobly
carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion
to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain;
that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom; that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
