The poem provides evidence of which of the following with respect to gender relations in Tang society?

(A) Confucian relationships between husband and wife were still strong in Tang society. (B) Imperial rescripts emphasized the birth of able sons over daughters to fulfill conscription quotas. (C) Agricultural work could be shared by women and men alike. (D) Traditional Chinese gender relations were reversed during the reign of Empress Wu Zetian.Explanation: You can start by eliminating (A), as the second and last paragraphs appear to show cracks in any strong Confucian belief in the proper relationship between husband and wife. Choice (B) can also be eliminated; although the passage discusses oppressive conscription, it makes no mention of any edict emphasizing the birth of male children to become soldiers. Eliminate (D) because the passage does not support any sort of reversal of gender roles during the reign of Wu Zetian. Choice (C), shared agricultural work between men and women, is correct.
