Answer :

Women suffered inequality for a long time such that women are treated as inferior to men. When the time came that the position became available for women, they used their rights to demand to join unions, form women's suffrage organizations and win property rights. 

Correct answers:

A: They joined unions.

D: They formed women’s suffrage organizations.

The women who at first dedicated their lives to reform for the struggle of their rights were middle and upper class. In order to support the movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, more women joined the unions, held strikes for higher wages and protested for better working conditions. Also the workers began to see the vote as a way to gain more political power to promote these causes.
