Consequences of Industrialization unit test

A test on this unit alone, marked as a percentage and a letter grade — for the test your class is actually sitting, rather than for May. Answer everything, then submit once: seeing the answer to question 3 before attempting question 4 makes the final percentage meaningless.

Each paper is built from this unit’s 37 terms and is the same for everyone, so a teacher can assign “Unit 6, Paper 1” and every student sits the identical test. Multiple choice is marked objectively; the written sections you mark yourself against the model answer and rubric.

SHORT-ANSWER QUESTION 2 (required). Read the summary of the source. The source is the opening editorial by Louise Otto-Peters, a German writer, in the first issue of the Women's Newspaper — the first women's newspaper published in Germany — in 1849 (the paper was later banned by the government in Saxony). Writing that "those who forget to think about themselves will be forgotten by others," she calls on her "sisters" to join her so that women are not left behind while everyone else pushes forward, and demands the right for women to cultivate their human potential and to act independently in the state. She wants to spread "the great ideas of liberty and humanity" through the press in the wider world and through example, instruction, and child-rearing within the family, and urges women to earn their liberty not individually but by looking after those left forgotten in poverty, misery, and ignorance — "each for all."

A. Identify one likely audience for the claims that the author makes in the passage.

B. Describe one historical context during the nineteenth century that explains the increased poverty and misery referred to in the fourth paragraph.

C. Explain how one ideology or set of ideas likely influenced the author’s claims in the passage.
