Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Industries with the highest death rates were mining, agriculture, forestry, and fishing, followed by construction, transportation, and public utilities.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In the 1990s, research clearly documented the extraordinary histories of violence, from childhood through adulthood, among women experiencing homelessness. High numbers of homeless women report histories of foster placement as children and exposure to violence as both children and adults. This research has not documented the differences in educational opportunities, gender relationships, and skills necessary for paid employment.
