Question 5

To determine the actions that limited women’s freedoms, we analyze each option:

• "Banned women from parks and sports centers" restricts women's access to public spaces, limiting freedom.
• "Allowed women to hold government positions" is an action that expands, not limits, freedom.
• "Banned girls from school after sixth grade" restricts educational opportunities, limiting freedom.
• "Encouraged women to travel alone" is an action that expands freedom.

So the two actions are "Banned women from parks and sports centers" and "Banned girls from school after sixth grade".

The quote "We are erased" implies a sense of being made invisible or ignored.

• Option A (hopeful) is opposite, as "erased" suggests negativity.
• Option C (powerful) and D (respected) contradict the idea of being erased.
• Option B (ignored and invisible) matches the feeling of being "erased".

Answer:

• Banned women from parks and sports centers
• Banned girls from school after sixth grade
