Select the two highlighted examples that show the effect of the Great Depression on Americans. (1 point)

A. _I had a knowledge of sewing and because of this experience I was put over a group of women as 'floor woman', and like the former project I enjoyed it much._ After this work I was transferred to the Housekeepers Aid Project. This was a most unusual experience for me. B. _I had worked in the church,_ coming in contact with the poor and needy, the sick and suffering but it was nothing compared with that which I found or experienced on this project. C. _ I never realized before just what was out there in those alleys, in the slums, the poverty and illiteracy that existed there._ I am glad I have had the opportunity to work on WPA, first because it has provided me a livelihood and second for the experience I've gotten, which I wouldn't have gotten otherwise. It enabled me to keep up my notes on my home. I haven't been able to save anything since working on WPA but it enabled me to carry on. I simply could not have held out this long had it not been for WPA. The experience caused me to care for the sick and the old age pensioners and performing their household work which they were unable to do. D. _In fact, all sorts of human suffering has been witnessed in my work._
