Draw a line THROUGH the adjectives and a box AROUND the adjective phrases.
Moderately adapted from: Ariana Lindquist for The New York Times
As a young migrant, Lei Gailing sought her fortune in China’s fast-industrializing, freewheeling south. She found a steady job and a less stable boyfriend and then she became pregnant.
The routine course for most women would have been to marry the man or to arrange a quick abortion. Ms. Lei, who at that time was 33 and fiercely independent, did neither. She refused to marry the man, but she was afraid. She might never have a child. So she chose to become a single mother.
