Step-by-step explanation:

Virginia Woolf wrote her now famous extended essay "A Room of One's Own" as a speech for a women's college in the University of Cambridge. In it, she details and describes how women figures are important for the literary world and even the authorship of novels or written works but women aren't allowed or found to do so. Instead, they are 'supposed' to be confined within the four walls of the house and concentrate on maintaining the household issues. Thus, she began writing for the betterment of the women, their inclusion in the same opportunities in the writing scene. Though they may also have the same talent as that of their male counterparts, they are still denied the rights, encouragements and opportunities to be able to write on their own. So, she claims that "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction". Thus, the sentence from the essay that best supports the thought process Woolf employs in conducting her research for the essay is
