Which sentence in the text supports the main idea that society failed to protect workers? A the horror of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire traumatized the city.

B "I can't begin to tell you how disturbed the people were everywhere", Frances Perkins remembered.

C The city looked on indifferently as it did upon the lives of the poor generally.

D The fire department arrived quickly but its ladders could not reach the eighth floor.

allusion   is the right answer

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )

your answer is b. "with strong wording encouraging readers to take action."
