    Women turned from housewives into ___________.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "flappers" or "Flappers". In the early 20th century, there was a cultural shift where some women began to reject traditional gender roles and embrace a more independent and rebellious lifestyle. These women, known as flappers, challenged societal norms by wearing more revealing clothing, engaging in casual dating, and participating in activities previously considered inappropriate for women. They symbolized a new era of freedom and liberation for women, as they moved away from being solely housewives and embraced a more modern and progressive lifestyle.

    • True

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    After World War I, factories started producing consumer goods to meet the increased demand from the general population. The war had led to advancements in industrial production techniques and technologies, which allowed factories to shift their focus from producing military equipment to manufacturing goods for everyday use. This resulted in the availability of a wide range of consumer goods, such as appliances, clothing, and automobiles, that were previously only accessible to a limited number of people. Therefore, the statement "Factories were making consumer goods after World War I" is true.

Wilson's presidency was marked by various significant events such as the passage of progressive reforms, the United States' entry into World War I, and his efforts to establish the League of Nations. However, it is important to note that Wilson's second term ended in 1921, so he was not the president for the entire year of 1920.
