Answer to Question 1

When the United States entered World War I in 1917, women went back into the workforce and
took on jobs traditionally held by men. When women broke out of their traditional roles, they
shed their petticoats and the excruciating corset.

Answer to Question 2

In 1947, Christian Dior made history by presenting the New Look, which brought back
femininity to the world. The fashion world recognizes Dior for saving French haute couture.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
