The last paragraph describes a case from 1789 New England. In what way is this case similar to the events of "The Crucible"

a) Similar to the women in the factory, the girls in "The Crucible" have no outlet for leisure or self-expression,and therefore act out due to the stress of repression.

which piece of evidence from the article would best support Miller's belief that the Salem Witch trials were a result of repression

b) some scholars have also argued that hysterical episodes allow women to take a break from daily drudgeries, or to rage against patriarchal cultures within the safe bounds of demon possession or poisoning

The writer explains, "If girls can find no oullet for reckless abandon, in other words, they'll create one," and then quotes Barbara Ehrenreich, Elizabeth Hess, and Gloria Jacobs: "To abandon control--to scream, faint, dash about in mobs--was, in form if not in conscious intent, to protest the sexual repressiveness, the rigid double standard of female teen culture." These quotes best explain which of the following events in "The Crucible?"

c) The girls dancing and making charms in the woods

Which quotes from "The Crucible" best exemplifies mass hysteria, as defined in this article?

d) MARY WARREN: I_-I cannot tell you how [I saw spirits], but I did. I--I heard the other girls screaming, and you, Your Honor, you seemed to believe them, and I--It were only sport in the beginning, sir, but then the whole world cried spirits, spirits, and I--I promise you, Mr. Danforth, I only thought I saw them but I did not."
