Answer 2

Answer: A

Answer 3

Answer: The ideal answer should include:

• 
  Speed-ups of the assembly line drove autoworkers to strike in 1936.
  


• 
  The strike erupted against General Motors in Atlanta, and then spread to Kansas City, Missouri; Cleveland, Ohio; and the main plants at Flint, Michigan.
  


• 
  Two weeks into the strike, workers clashed with police, but state and federal government officials refused to send in troops to end the strike.
  


• 
  Women as well as men participated actively in the Flint strike.
  


• 
  The sit-down strike at Flint lasted 44 days and forced General Motors to recognize the United Auto Workers (UAW), a CIO union.
  


• 
  The strike scored a clear victory for the workers and boosted the CIOs stature as a national union of industrial workers.
