Nigerian women have a promising future and we hope the abilities they exhibit will justify the expectation of the majority. A great man once declared that by educating the women, a nation can be educated because no country will truly rise without the contribution of 50% of their population. The passage best supports the statement that?

The passage best supports the statement that

educated women are the best and first teachers for the children that they bear and nurture.

Explanation:

In every society where the women receive equal access to education, the literacy level is always higher than in other societies where the women are relegated to the background in education.  The women are mostly mothers.  As mothers, they are the first teachers that their children learn from.  Since one cannot give what they do not have, if the mothers (women) are not educated, there is no reasonable expectation for their children to be educated.  This is because the cradle of education starts from the breast and the home.  Naturally, women are dominant in these areas.  Therefore, we must encourage and empower our women to be educated so that they can impart knowledge to the children.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

animal farm, written by george orwell, is a representation of russia after the revolution that led stalin to take over power.

in this excerpt, the central idea seems to be that the animals (a representation of society), when they believe to be working for a greater good and equality, are obedient and productive. they were convinced that, after expelling the owner (jones) from the farm, they would live in harmony and be fairly treated.

as we know, the pigs become the leaders and grow more selfish and dictatorial with time. in the end, they look and act in a way so similar to humans that it is impossible to tell the difference. the ideals of equality are shattered, and the farm turns out to be worse than it was before. the animals are manipulated with false propaganda and forced to work in order to enrich the pigs.
