Q1:
So dogged were Frances Perkins’ investigations of the garment industry, and her lobbying for wage and hour reform was persistent, Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt recruited Perkins to work within the government, rather than as a social worker.
the key is E
in my view ,to E,before the word so there should exist a conj "and "
meanwhile where is the mistake by B?
anyone could give me an explanation? thank u~~~
cool,i found the original sentence finally
Penny Colman, who has written about Dorothea Dix and Fannie Lou Hamer, is equally thorough, fair and candid in her treatment of Frances Perkins. A native of Massachusetts, Perkins graduated from Mount Holyoke College in 1902 and became a professional social worker in the New York charity world in which Eleanor Roosevelt volunteered. So dogged were her investigations of the garment industry, and so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform, that she was first recruited by Gov. Al Smith, and later by Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt, to work within New York State government, rather than against it. This prepared her to be President Roosevelt's Secretary of Labor, a job which then encompassed health and welfare as well as labor. Perkins's tenure witnessed the greatest period of organization in American labor history. She unequivocally supported the right to organize and bargain collectively, and used her considerable influence with the President to prevent him from restraining strikes by longshoremen and automobile workers. Yet she always had more confidence in the Federal Government than in organized labor as an instrument of social justice, and she devoted most of her efforts to protecting workers through maximum-hour and minimum-wage regulations
