(1) However, after being told she would not be allowed to present the speech herself, that instead it would be read at the assembly by a male student, she turned down the offer. Her future was in public speaking and she would not be denied.

Should it be "instead"? Can "that" be deleted? Please advise.

(2) Although she was determined not to marry, Lucy had not yet met Cincinnati hardware merchant Henry B. Blackwell, brother of Elizabeth and Emily Blackwell, the first women medical practitioners in the country. Seven years younger than she, Blackwell earnestly pursued Lucy for two years, begging for her hand in marriage.

Should it be " Seven years younger than her,"? Please check usage.

(3) Although she, as many of the other women in the movement, stitched shirts for Union soldiers, being domestic was not her calling and during the period, she helped found the Woman's National Loyal League, advocating full emancipation and enfranchisement for African Americans.

Please check comma usage in the above sentence.

(4) Slowly, she moved away from the more extreme positions and the persons supporting them, particularly the free love advocacy of presidential-candidate-to-be Victoria Woodhull and those who opposed all but federal suffrage mandates, including Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony.

Do we need hyphen in "presidential-candidate-to-be"? Please clarify.

(5) She died at her home of cancer but refused to make her death the end of the firsts on her list. Her final wish was to be first person cremated in New England.

Should it be "was to be the first person"? Please check.

(6) Lack of paid employment was not an issue for Addams was a skilled fundraiser.

Is the sentence construction ok? Please check.

(7) Employing a changing and adaptable approach to organization, Addams established the first public playground in the city, started a post office and a savings bank, initiated the first juvenile court and offered bathing facilities for those who had none.

Do we need serial comma before "and offered bathing facilities"? Please clarify.

(8) Unfortunately, her career was short-lived for she was summoned home to help care for her ailing mother.

Do we need hyphen in "short-lived"? Please clarify.

I don't know what format you use for the date. July 03/08 is one I have not seen before. July 3, 2008, or 3 July 2008 are more familiar to me. However if this is your convention, then use it as you have written in.

Usually you state how long your leave will be. One week, two weeks, etc.

Do you "advise" your boss that you are taking leave at a certain time, or do you request it? If you advise him/her, then

I would like to let you know that I have scheduled my annual vacation for [two weeks - whatever], starting on 3 July 2008, when I will be getting married.

I am totally unfamaliar with informing your boss of your expectation for a bonus and pay increase due to marriage, but bonus requires an article ("a"), as does company ("the"), and company should have a small c. Perhaps you want to say "due to my change in my family status" because the company is not the thing that has the family satus.

ISSUE :The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare.

~~Is really the case as the speaker contends that~~ Is the absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare? The speakerâs assertion is tempting when it comes to various ways of living a life, innumerous optional products (odd) in shopping, etc, however, to have a deep and thorough reflection over the choices we donât take, will reveal ~~us a fact that~~ choices available is really only a few (what do you mean?).

Consider, when we first come to earth, we have no choice over who will be our parents, later on, the social values instilled into our minds left us with no options in defining right from wrong since parents and teachers are making all the judgments ~~work~~ for us while our job is only to follow, gradually we form our character, which ultimately separate us what the speaker mentioned that circumstances absent of choices is very, very rare. The education we received, the restriction our values system and outlooks of the world placed on us has always been hampering us substantially from myriads of choices.

The fetters imposed by the ingrained assumptions we take in our lives can be aptly demonstrated in the instances of womenâs status in the Middle East world. (Make it simpler) ~~One of the many progress of modern society has achieved is the heightened status of women throughout the world. However,~~ consider the women of the Middle East~~, this extraordinary change in womenâs status could hardly be inferred from their lives~~. It is a social assumption that they should stay at home, nurturing children and taking care of the elders, obeying all the orders from her husband. Women in such a society hardly have any choice to be a working woman, to be a learned female or at least to search the true self. Indeed there are choices for women, but these are the choices of what is the date for a her marriage, when she will go out to markets. Women of this world are held back ~~in house~~ and most often they seldom think there being any necessary for a change. Thereby, we may come to a conclusion that the environment, all kinds of social ideologies, ~~circumscribe and~~ prevent us from other possible developments. Thus, the authorâs assertion pales in the face of ~~all kinds of~~ the inveterate social value system.

However, it is not my intention to conclude that we will live a miserable life due to the destined environment and destined choices we could only make. More importantly an incisive understanding of how profound impact external factors have on us allows us a chance to break the fetters imposed on our minds so that give us ~~a rise and courage for~~ more choices in life. Only by liberate our minds and rise above to all kinds of boundaries can we come to real innumerous choices.

To summarize up, had it not been we are fettered with all kinds of conventional ideas or values, or limited by some other economic conditions, the choices in life will be numerous ~~as the speaker maintained~~. Thereby, in order to strive for more choices really available to us, we need rise to all kinds of conventional ideas and boundaries.

thanks in advance
