Question 7 of 10

Read this excerpt from a campaign speech:

My opponent in this race for the governor's office claims

that I am corrupt. He dares to suggest that I accepted

favors from business owners in exchange for putting them

in contact with state legislators who lowered business

taxes. This is an absurd claim. Moreover, I find it ironic that

he, of all people, wants to point fingers and talk about

corruption. Isn't it interesting that he accepts so many

campaign donations from the oil industry and is single-

handedly responsible for sponsoring state laws that ease

environmental regulations? Dear friends, remember on

Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,

It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle

trying to distract us from his own bad character.

Which statement best describes the speaker's point of view?

Answers

Answer 1

Incomplete question: Here are the options:

A. Citizens are too concerned about corruption in politics

B.The speaker's opponent is a decent person who has gotten in over his head.

C. The speaker's is innocent of all accusation

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Answer:

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Explanation:

From the excerpt of the campaign speech, the speaker who is not named directs the thoughts of his listeners to what he calls, the "bad character" of his opponent.

He makes his point of view more evident when he said,

"Dear friends, remember on  Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,  It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle  trying to distract us from his own bad character."

Answer:

Explanation:Plains Native Americans lived in both sedentary and nomadic communities.

They farmed corn, hunted, and gathered, establishing diverse lifestyles and healthy diets.

When horses arrived on the Plains along with the Spanish colonizers, or conquistadores, they disrupted agricultural norms and intensified hunting competition between Native American groups.The Plains region spreads to the east of the Rocky Mountains, up to 400 miles across the flat land of the center of the present-day United States. The Plains were very sparsely populated until about 1100 CE, when Native American groups including Pawnees, Mandans, Omahas, Wichitas, Cheyennes, and other groups started to inhabit the area.

The climate supported limited farming closer to the major waterways but ultimately became most fruitful for hunting large and small game.These hunting-agrarian groups were mostly divided at the level of the band. A band could consist of a dozen to a few hundred people who lived, hunted, and traveled together. Often, bands would unite in a village setting to farm or hunt a large herd of bison. Villages usually had fluid populations and little to no political structure.

It is nearly impossible to generalize the religious traditions of the Plains region since every group had its own practices. Rituals often revolved around the sun and nature, with the Earth as the mother of all spirits. Cheyennes, for example, performed the Sun Dance, which forced people to sacrifice something personal for communal benefit. Lakotas believed that certain individuals were blessed to be spiritual leaders or medicine men. Indigenous people on the Plains regarded the buffalo and their migration patterns as sacred.

With the introduction of horses, Plains societies became less egalitarian; the men with the most horses had the most political impact, social status, and economic power. As European colonists arrived, the Sioux, in particular, began to trade with them. They received guns and horses in exchange for buffalo robes, blankets, and beads.

Intertribal conflict increased due to this heightened competition, with groups stealing each others' horses for economic gain and glory. This began a pattern of violence between the Native American groups and Euro-American colonists as they settled across the Plains during the centuries to come.

English colonists establish the city of Savannah

English Bill of Rights limits the power of the king

Answers

Answer:

IT IS C

Explanation:

English colonists establish the city of Savannah, this best demonstrates the significance of the year 1607. Therefore option C is correct.

What happened in 1607?

Numerous people perished in the Bristol Channel floods of January 30, 1607, which also significantly damaged agriculture and cattle. The extent and depth of the flooding, the likely weather, the known tide heights, and coastal flooding elsewhere in the UK on the same day all point to a storm surge rather than a tsunami as the source.

The colony was the first enduring English settlement in the Americas when it was established in 1607. The English, who would later establish themselves as the main colonial power in North America, had thus finally established a permanent colonial presence, marking 1607 as a significant turning point in Colonial America's history.

Why do you think Rome fell? 5-8 sentences

Answer:

1. Invasions by Barbarian tribes

The most straightforward theory for Western Rome’s collapse pins the fall on a string of military losses sustained against outside forces. Rome had tangled with Germanic tribes for centuries, but by the 300s “barbarian” groups like the Goths had encroached beyond the Empire’s borders. The Romans weathered a Germanic uprising in the late fourth century, but in 410 the Visigoth King Alaric successfully sacked the city of Rome. The Empire spent the next several decades under constant threat before “the Eternal City” was raided again in 455, this time by the Vandals. Finally, in 476, the Germanic leader Odoacer staged a revolt and deposed the Emperor Romulus Augustulus. From then on, no Roman emperor would ever again rule from a post in Italy, leading many to cite 476 as the year the Western Empire suffered its deathblow.

4.)
I strongly believe that the north side gained the most. The north side received California as a free state. Since California was a free state the free states outnumbered the slave states. The balance of the Senate was now with the free states, although California often voted with the south on many issues in the 1850s. The major victory for the south was the Fugitive Slave Law. In the end, the north refused to enforce it. Massachusetts even called for its nullification, stealing an argument from John C. Calhoun. Northerners claimed the law was unfair. The flagrant violation of the Fugitive Slave Law set the scene for the tempest that emerged later in the decade. But for now, Americans hoped against hope that the fragile peace would prevail.

A common misconception that people have about history is related to Athenian Democracy.

Explanation

Most people know that democracy was born in the Ancient Greek city of Athens, and when they first hear the world "democracy", they think that their democracy was similar to the democracy we have today.

But the truth is that Athenian democracy was very different. As you research more about this historical period, you understand that democracy in Athens was very limited: only wealthy men had democratic rights, and participated in a form of direct democracy. The rest of the population: poor men, women, and slaves, did not have political rights, and were not part of that democracy.

Answers

C I got a 100 trust

The late 1800s saw an attempt by American domestic policy toward Native Americans to coerce them into renunciating their traditional cultures. As a result, choice (C) is the right solution.

What is the Native Americans' policy in the US?

According to some academics, the federal government's treatment of Native Americans has been divided into six phases: coexistence (1789–1828), removal and reservations (1829–1886), assimilation (1887–1932), restructuring (1932–1945), termination (1946–1960), and self-determination (1960–1960). (1961–1985).

Life for Native Americans saw a significant transformation between 1850 and 1900. American Indians were evicted from their homes due to policies of the U.S. government that divided up their ancestral lands. The Plains, where they had once wandered alone, were now populated by white settlers.

Statistics show that since gaining its independence in 1776, the American government has attacked over 1,500 Indian tribes, killing the native people, stealing their lands, and committing innumerable other crimes.

Hence, option (C) is accurate.
