Answer:

Historically, innovations in travel led to westward expansion in the United States.

Transportation and communication have served to unify United States citizens.

Explanation:

IF the text is:

adapted from The Expansion of the United States

from A Short History of the World

by H.G. Wells

    The region of the world that displayed the most immediate and striking results from the new inventions in transport was North America. Politically, the United States embodied, and its constitution crystallized, the liberal ideas of the mid-eighteenth century. It dispensed with state-church or crown, it would have no titles, it protected property jealously as a method of freedom, and it gave nearly every adult male citizen a vote. Its method of voting was crude, and therefore its political life soon fell, but that did not prevent the newly emancipated population from developing an energy, enterprise, and public spirit far beyond that of any other contemporary population.

    Then came that acceleration of locomotion. It is a curious thing that America, which owes most to this acceleration in locomotion, has felt it least. The United States has taken the railway, the river steamboat, the telegraph, and so forth as though they were a natural part of their growth. They were not. These things happened to come along just in time to save American unity. The United States of today was made first by the river steamboat, and then by the railway. Without these things, the present United States would have been altogether impossible. The westward flow of population would have been far more sluggish. It might never have crossed the great central plains. The first state established beyond the river was the steamboat state of Missouri in 1821. But the rest of the distance to the Pacific was done in a few decades.

    If we had the resources then, it would be interesting to show a map of North America year by year from 1600 onward, with little dots to represent hundreds of people, each dot a hundred, and stars to represent cities of a hundred thousand people.

    For two hundred years, the reader would see the little dots creeping slowly along the coastal districts and navigable waters, spreading still more gradually into Indiana, Kentucky, and so forth. Then somewhere about 1810 would come a change. Things would get more lively along the river courses. The dots would be multiplying and spreading. That would be the steamboat.

    Then from about 1850 onward would come the black lines of the railways, and after that the little black dots would not simply creep but run. Then suddenly here and then there would appear the first stars to indicate the first great cities of a hundred thousand people. First one or two and then a multitude of cities—each like a knot in the growing net of the railways.

    The growth of the United States is a process that has no precedent in the world's history; it is a new kind of occurrence. Such a community could not have come into existence before, and if it had, without railways it would certainly have dropped to pieces long before now. Without railways or telegraph, it would be far easier to administer California from Pekin than from Washington. But this great population of the United States of America has not only grown outrageously; it has kept uniform. Nay, it has become more uniform. The man of San Francisco is more like the man of New York today than the man of Virginia was like the man of New England a century ago. The United States is being woven by railway, by telegraph, more and more into one vast unity, speaking, thinking, and acting harmoniously with itself. Soon aviation will be helping in the work.

While it may seem silly to think about now, I think that in several years we will look back and truly wonder why we used so much bioengineering for many of our common items. We have stopped using organic substances, although there has been a push for them, and we have resorted to using chemically made items. They are no longer from the Earth, yet pushed out of a factory ready for human use. Remedies, and items alike, I think that our ancestors will look back upon us with shame at how we treated the planet. Bioengineered substances have a very difficult time breaking down, which in turn, harms the planet further. So yes, these man-made substances will eventually harm us and our future.

Henry David Thoreau’s Walden

Where I lived, and What I Lived For


What does it mean that his house wasn’t ready for winter and was just a "defense against the rain"?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

When Thoreau says his house wasn't ready for winter and was just "a defense against the rain," he means the house he has built for himself is still unfinished. It does have walls and a roof, therefore being able to protect him against the rain. However, it does not yet have a chimney or plastering. The walls are made of boards, so he basically doesn't have much defense against the cold. Nevertheless, Thoreau begins to live in it anyway in the month of July, 1845.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

But Coyote decided to trick the Bear by planning to take the better part of the crops that grew. But he was outsmarted by the Bear. He tried tricking the Bear on two different occasions but yet the Bear outsmarted him. He was tricky and covetous and at the end, he never got anything from the garden.

3) Choose True or False. If False, choose the statement to make it True. The main emphasis of your writing project is to express a character's feelings.

True.

Explanation:

“Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out” by Shel Silverstein

Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would not take the garbage out!
She’d scour the pots and scrape the pans,
Candy the yams and spice the hams,
5 And though her daddy would scream and shout, She simply would not take the garbage out. And so it piled up to the ceiling:
Coffee grounds, potato peelings, Brown bananas, rotten peas, 10 Chunks of sour cottage cheese.
It filled the can, it covered the floor,
It cracked the window and blocked the door
With bacon rinds and chicken bones,
Drippy ends of ice cream cones,
15 Prune pits, peach pits, orange peel,
Gloppy glumps of cold oatmeal,
Pizza crusts and withered greens,
Soggy beans and tangerines,
Crusts of black burned buttered toast,
20 Gristly bits of beefy roasts…
The garbage rolled on down the hall,
It raised the roof, it broke the wall…
Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs,
Globs of gooey bubblegum,
25 Cellophane from green baloney,
Rubbery blubbery macaroni,
Peanut butter, caked and dry,
Curdled milk and crusts of pie,
Moldy melons, dried up mustard,
30 Eggshells mixed with lemon custard, Cold French fries and rancid meat, Yellow lumps of Cream of Wheat. At last the garbage reached so high That finally it touched the sky.
35 And all the neighbors moved away,
And none of her friends would come to play.
And finally Sarah Cynthia Stout said,
“OK, I’ll take the garbage out!”
But then, of course, it was too late
40 The garbage reached across the state,
From New York to the Golden Gate
And there, in the garbage she did hate,
Poor Sarah met an awful fate,
That I cannot right now relate
45 Because the hour is much too late. But children, remember Sarah Stout And always take the garbage out!

Answers

Answer:

he wanted to engage an audience

Explanation:

Answer:

The answer is to engage the audience.

Explanation:

In the reading of the lesson, they specifically state the reason in the following paragraph;

Authors often write fiction about historical characters to address a specific audience. Who was Miller’s audience at the time, and why did he feel the need to change Abigail’s age? Audiences need to relate to a storyline, too, and authors need to keep them interested and reading. The Crucible is an important documentation of American history, and it's a testament to how history often repeats itself. A young girl of eleven or twelve is now legally considered a minor and too young to consent to a relationship with an adult.

Had Arthur Miller stuck to these facts, he’d have risked taking attention away from the storyline and bringing more attention to the moral issues of John Proctor, with less empathy for his already flawed character.
