Question

read the sentence from \for the era.\
the selective service law would have to include women, but women would not be required to serve in the armed forces where they are not fitted, any more than men are required to serve.
which best paraphrases this sentence?
women would be required to serve in the armed forces according to rules already in place for men.
men are not required to serve in the armed forces if they are not able, and the same exceptions would apply to women.
we would reach equality if women are allowed to serve in the armed forces in whatever capacity they are able.
service in the armed forces, once limited to men, would now become a great opportunity for women.

Explanation:

The original sentence states that women would be included in selective service, but they would not be forced to serve in military roles they are unfit for, just as men are not required to serve in roles they are unfit for. The correct paraphrase matches this logic of equal exceptions for both genders.

Answer:

B. Men are not required to serve in the armed forces if they are not able, and the same exceptions would apply to women.
