Read the following excerpt from Little Women. "Really, girls, you are both to be blamed," said Meg, beginning to lecture in her elder-sisterly fashion. "You are old enough to leave off boyish tricks, and to behave better, Josephine. It didn't matter so much when you were a little girl, but now you are so tall, and turn up your hair, you should remember that you are a young lady."

"I'm not! And if turning up my hair makes me one, I'll wear it in two tails till I'm twenty," cried Jo, pulling off her net, and shaking down a chestnut mane. "I hate to think I've got to grow up, and be Miss March, and wear long gowns, and look as prim as a China Aster! It's bad enough to be a girl, anyway, when I like boy's games and work and manners! I can't get over my disappointment in not being a boy. And it's worse than ever now, for I'm dying to go and fight with Papa. And I can only stay home and knit, like a poky old woman!"
What question would be most effective to encourage a good group discussion?

What does Jo wish she could go and do with Papa?

In what other ways might Jo be frustrated about her life?

According to what she says, why is Jo disappointed?

During her lecture, what does Meg tell Jo she should do?

"According to what she says, why is Jo disappointed? "

Explanation:

The question selected above is the most efficient in creating a group discussion. This is because she allows each member of the group to present her vision of Jo's condition, how she sees herself and the environment in which she lives and how this view disappoints her. This question can also generate discussions about gender inadequacy and body dysphoria that Jo may or may not be presenting, but it can also encourage students to discuss machismo, the role of women in society and how it can influence girls' eyes in themselves.

the answer is both an appeal to ethos and logos (if that's what your question options were)
