What was this structure intended to accomplish?
A) to provide a trade route for merchants to move goods to Europe
B) to prevent invasion of nomads across the northern frontier of China
C) to end a series of civil wars between rival dynasties
D) to create a faster and more efficient way of traveling across the mountains
Answer:
I think this is B
Explanation:
I was learning this in history
To prevent the invasion of nomads across the northern frontier of China this structure was intended to accomplish. The correct option is B.
What did the ancient Chinese do to prevent people from invading the north?Chinese authorities started building walls to fortify the country against northern, nomadic invaders. In the Shandong province, a section of one such ancient wall that is still standing is made of the hard-packed soil known as "rammed earth," and it is thought to be 2,500 years old.
The Great Wall, the most recognizable representation of China and its extensive and colorful history, was first envisioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang in the third century B.C. as a defense against incursions by nomadic barbarians.
The Great Wall protected the central plain of modern-day China and successfully repelled invasions from numerous northern nomadic tribes throughout history, including the Huns during the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Turks during the Sui Dynasty, the Khitan during the Song Dynasty, and the Tatar, Oirat, and Jurchen during the Ming Dynasty.
Thus, the ideal selection is option B.

Read a paragraph from an essay supporting Truman’s decision to use the atomic bomb against Japan during World War II.
[1] Many people have argued that nothing could justify the president’s use of the atomic bomb because it killed so many innocent civilians. [2] Truman himself refused to drop a third atomic bomb on Japan because he was horrified by the death and devastation it had caused. [3] However, he never regretted his decision to use it in the first place. [4] Using the bomb brought an immediate end to a war that might have gone on for months or even years longer. [5] It is impossible to put a number on how many more deaths the continuing war might have caused, but there are indications. [6] Millions had already died in the Pacific theater. [7] Whenever US troops invaded an island, they knew the fight was to the death. [8] In the battle for Okinawa alone, there had been almost 50,000 US casualties, while Japan had suffered some 90,000 military deaths and at least 100,000 civilian deaths. [9] With his decision, Truman put an end to the slaughter.

What problems did employees of the railroad
companies face?
Answer:
The problems that the employees of the railroad faced were that while they were laying tracks they were attacked by Native Americans. Also diseases disabled and killed many thousands of men a year
Explanation:
Answer:
All employee conditions during the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century were very harsh, America's railroad industry became mostly a freight-hauling industry as opposed to a passenger-carrying industry due to America's size and various population densities. Freight hauling was far more dangerous to railroad workers because they often had to work in between moving cars in order to link freight cars together or unlink them. They also had to ride on the cars in order to manually use the brakes to stop the train. Since railroad employee wages were also high, employers had to economize by spending less on trains and equipment and by hiring fewer employees. Fewer employees resulted in not having enough hands to perform a dangerous task, resulting in "many derailments and collisions"

Answer this opinion question with facts and evidence presented in class and in the videos shown. Please answer by writing one paragraph. Question: SHOULD THE MINIMUM WAGE BE RAISED OR SHOULD IT STAY THE SAME? WHY??
Answer:
Raising the minimum wage on a regular basis helps families keep up with price inflation. Putting more money in the hands of people who will readily spend it helps the economy. Lower unemployment and higher wages increase tax revenues. When workers earn higher wages, they rely less on governmental “safety net” programs.

Differences of views, bad communication, changes in the family (such as a new baby or divorce), sibling rivalry or disciplinary problems may be other sources of family fighting.

He knows that Stanton is a fast learner, and he wants to help her reach her goals as quickly as possible. He understands Stanton's frustration about society's unequal treatment of women and girls.
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
"My father," I replied, "prefers boys; he wishes I was one, and I intend to be as near like one as possible. I am going to ride on horseback and study Greek. Will you give me a Greek lesson now, doctor? I want to begin at once." "Yes, child," said he, throwing down his h.oe, "come into my library and we will begin without delay." Which best explains Rev. Simon Hos.ack’s reaction to Stanton’s feelings about behaving like a boy?
A. He understands Stanton’s frustration with her own capabilities, but he still believes she can succeed.
B. He knows that Stanton will be willing to help with the work in his garden in exchange for her lessons.
C. He knows that Stanton is a fast learner, and he wants to help her reach her goals as quickly as possible.
D. He understands Stanton’s frustration about society’s unequal treatment of women and girls.
Answer:
The option that best explains the reverend's reaction is:
D. He understands Stanton’s frustration about society’s unequal treatment of women and girls.
Explanation:
Elizabeth Cady Stanton is the main author of The Declaration of Sentiments, a document signed in 1848 at the first women's rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York.
During her childhood, Stanton faced the harsh reality of having a father whose attention she craved. However, since she was not a boy, she did not receive that attention. Stanton was determined to show her father she could do anything boys did, which is why she is asking for Rev. Simon's help. She wants to learn what boys learn. As we can see in the passage, the reverend agrees to teach her because he understands her frustration. Instead of rejecting her appeal, telling Stanton she should not try to break that mold society had forced onto her, Rev. Simon chooses to help.
Answer: D
Explanation: He understands Stanton’s frustration about society’s unequal treatment of women and girls.
