Read the following passage:

Paul's Paintings

Once, in Switzerland, there lived a boy. His name was Paul Klee, and he lived in a world full of music and color. His father was a music teacher, and his mother enjoyed singing cheerful songs, so he was surrounded by music. But the real magic came from his grandmother, who liked to draw pictures. When she gave Paul colored pencils and taught him to draw, Paul's creativity flowed onto the page in beautiful color.

As Paul grew up, his parents encouraged him to learn music because they wanted him to be a musician like them. At seven, Paul learned to play the violin, and he enjoyed the music that flowed from his fingers, but his thoughts always returned to the colored pencils his grandmother had given him. He though so much about the colors flowing together that he even ended up drawing on his notebooks at school! His teachers didn't always appreciate his creativity, especially when he was supposed to be doing math.

As Paul got older, his love of art stayed with him. He went to school and learned to paint and draw. He was determined to learn the techniques so that he could share his love of art with his own students one day, just like his grandmother had with him.

One day when Paul was thinking about what to paint next, he remembered his grandmother and the drawings they used to create together. Soon his brush was swooping across the canvas, and his childhood drawings became works of art. His playful paintings became famous around the world. Today they hang in museums and art galleries where they inspire children everywhere to find their own style and create the kind of art that is meaningful to them.

"Rosie the Riveter"

With her iconic blue shirt, flexed arm muscle, red bandanna, and "We Can Do it" slogan often emblazoned above her head, Rosie the Riveter has been a symbol of women's rights for decades. Originally created during World War II, the fictional character of Rosie the Riveter was based on several real-life women who worked in industrial jobs around country. The idea behind creating Rosie the Riveter was to encourage women to work in factory jobs while men fought in World War II. After World War II, the image of Rosie has gone on to mean much more.
The ad campaign with Rosie the Riveter was commissioned by the War Manpower Commission and the Office of War Information as part a nationwide campaign to recruit women into the labor force. The campaign included images that featured Rosie through the popular media of the time: movies, newspapers, posters, photographs and articles. The image reached its full icon status when the popular artist Norman Rockwell depicted Rosie the Riveter for the cover of The Saturday Evening Post. The image portrays a muscular woman wearing overalls, goggles, pins of honor on her lapel, and rolled-up sleeves. ..........................................
Though the many women who joined the workforce during World War II eventually returned home after the war, the image of Rosie the Riveter has resurfaced in recent years as a symbol for people advocating for women's rights in all contexts. Many people are drawn to the strength and possibility embodied by the figure of Rosie. Popular celebrities even don the apparel of Rosie as a nod to this figure of female empowerment.
a. Norman Rockwell's artistic skill is what was necessary to bring the figure of Rosie the Riveter to life for many people
b. At the time, The Saturday evening post was popular weekly newspaper that covered important and sometimes controversial issues of the day
c. To many, the magazine cover showed a hopeful American spirit and fostered the belief that women could do male-dominated jobs
d. Though the picture of Rosie the Riveter was different than what was in movies, people were still drawn to it for various other reasons.
