Read the passage from A Room of One’s Own.

Thus, I concluded, shutting Mr Oscar Browning's life and pushing away the rest, it is fairly evident that even in the nineteenth century a woman was not encouraged to be an artist. On the contrary, she was snubbed, slapped, lectured and exhorted.

Which points of view are emphasized by the underlined words in this passage? Select two options.

that being a female artist is emotionally painful
that female artists are treated with hostility
that female artists are ostracized by society
that being an artist is not safe for a woman
that female artists are always taken for granted

Answer:

Options B and C. The following two points are emphasized by the underlined words in the passage:

Female artists are treated with hostility.

Female artists are ostracized by society.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the passage from "A Room of One's Own", author Virginia Woolf emphasizes how much more difficult was for women to be artists than for men, due to how society treated them when they knew they were performers. Woolf's writes how women were not encouraged to become artists, but on the contrary, were snubbed, slapped, lectured and exhorted by society. She is portraying how female artists were treated with hostility and somewhat excluded from the rest of artists, just because of their condition of women.
