Asked by q

Which passage from the text best supports the correct answer to Question 7?


A. “Because there are fewer women in STEM now, there are fewer female mentors for girls and young women interested in STEM. When girls don’t see women in the field, they may assume STEM is not for them, either. ‘I have been fortunate to have some incredible female mentors and role models, and I think that their examples have taught me to think in innovative ways and push the boundaries of scientific inquiry,’ Shree says.”

B. “And, of course, she later became a Google Science Fair champion. Winning that competition changed Shree’s life. She met President Barack Obama. Glamour magazine named her one of its ‘21 Amazing Young Women of the Year’. She received emails from all around the country from cancer patients and their family members."

C. “After winning the Google Science Fair in 2011, Shree enrolled at Harvard University. At Harvard, she mentored young people. They often asked how she got started in STEM. She would tell them about doing research, finding Dr. Basu, and getting involved in a lab for hands-on experience.”

D. “Shree believes STEM fields would benefit from having more women involved. As she says, ‘I think it’s absolutely essential for women to be in STEM, not just because of the obvious reasons that we can be and equality is good for society, but also because women have unique perspectives and experiences that can inform new ways of approaching scientific problems.’”

- If Q7 asks about things that happened to Shree after winning the competition (recognition, meeting the President) → B.
- If Q7 asks about Shree’s actions mentoring others or how she encouraged young people into STEM → C.
- If Q7 asks about Shree’s belief that more women should be in STEM or that women bring unique perspectives → D.
