Correct Answer: temperance


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

Explanation: In the context of the sentence, the word temperance makes sense as it refers to moderation or abstinence, particularly from the consumption of alcohol.

The sentence is discussing topics covered in sermons, tracts, and addresses related to the restraint or moderation of female intemperance (excessive indulgence, typically in alcohol).

So, the correct sentence would be: "Before about 1830, temperance sermons, tracts, and addresses routinely broached female intemperance."
