Question

Reread paragraph 5. What evidence do the authors provide to suggest that Harriet Quimby had a sense of humor?

Answer 1

I don’t have the passage in front of me — could you paste paragraph 5 (or tell me the source)? Once I can see it I’ll point to the exact words the authors use and explain how those words show Quimby’s sense of humor.

If you want to answer it yourself, here’s a quick method:
- Find a direct quote or a short phrase in the paragraph that shows joking, teasing, irony, or a playful attitude.
- Copy that quote into your answer.
- Explain briefly how the wording shows humor (for example, it may be a joke she made, a playful description, or an ironic comment).
Example structure: “The authors show she had a sense of humor when they write, ‘[exact quote].’ This shows humor because [explain—e.g., it is a joke/ironic comment/playful description].”
