What does the author believe is most important about Bessie Coleman?

She wanted to prove to her brother that French women were no better than American women.

What can the reader mainly infer about Coleman from the following passage (paragraph 15)? Coleman's funeral in Jacksonville on May 2, 1926, was attended by more than 5,000 mourners, many who were prominent members of black society. Three days later her body arrived in Orlando, Fla., where thousands more attended a funeral at Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church. Her final journey took her back to Chicago, where more than 10,000 people filed past her coffin to pay final respects before her burial in the Lincoln Cemetery.

She was widely popular in America.

She lessened discrimination against African Americans.

She had always craved attention.

She was practically unknown in her homeland.

Which sentence best summarizes the following passage (paragraph 18)? In the years following her death, Bessie Coleman aero clubs would spring up throughout the country and, on Labor Day in 1931, these clubs sponsored the first all-African-American Air Show, attracting more than 15,000 spectators. That same year, a group of African-American pilots established a fly-over of her gravesite, and her name began appearing on buildings in the Harlem area of New York City.

The African-American community honored Coleman in many ways after her death.

White and black Americans respected Coleman to the same degree.

People began to lose interest in Coleman after her death.

Coleman was the best female pilot to ever fly

Which inference about Coleman is best supported by the passage below (paragraphs 10-11)? In February of 1922, Coleman appeared in her first American airshow, an event honoring veterans of the all black 369th Infantry Regiment of World War I. The show, held at Curtiss Field on Long Island, N.Y., billed Coleman as "the world's greatest woman flier," and featured aerial displays by some of America's top ace pilots of the first world war. Soon after her New York performance, she returned to Chicago where she dazzled huge crowds with daredevil maneuvers that included figure eights, loops and near-ground dips at the Checkerboard Airdrome, now Midway Airport.

She loved the excitement of traveling.

She was a better pilot than some ace pilots of World War I

She was not treated as she deserved in America.
