Read a narrative essay about the Great Depression.

My great-uncle Al was fifteen when the stock market crashed in 1929, ushering in the Great Depression. Al had to quit school and try to find a job. The years of the Great Depression were terrible times for most people, and it was no different for that generation of my family.

Trying to find work was difficult, and Al had to work long hours for very little money. He took whatever jobs he could get. He sold newspapers on street corners. On a good day, he might take home thirty cents. On weekends, he sometimes was hired to wash dishes in a restaurant. In the fall, he was able to pick apples to sell on the street.

Many years later, Al wondered why those times were called the "Great" Depression. He didn't see anything great about it, and he was very glad when it was finally over.

A brainstorming chart that was used to write this narrative essay would have included the phrase “the years of the Great Depression were terrible times for most people” as
the concluding statement.
a supporting detail.
a topic sentence.
the thesis statement.

Answers

Hello. You did not enter the text to which these questions refer, which makes it impossible for them to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

To answer these questions you will have to read the entire text and acknowledge the argument that the author is presenting. This argument is an opinion, a positioning of the author on the subject he is presenting. In this case, to answer the first question, you must identify which sentences the author uses, in the text, to justify his argument, that is, these sentences are the evidence that the author uses to show that his argument is right.

To answer the second question, you need to reflect on whether or not you agree with the author's argument. If you agree, you must provide evidence that your agreement is correct. However, if you disagree, you must also present evidence and refute, that is, fight the author's argument.

To answer the third question, you will need to understand the decision making process that was made by the American government, before entering the Spanish-American War. These decisions must be compared with the processes presented in the text regarding these questions, until you find a similarity between a decision and a process. This similarity should allow you to make the comparison.

Answers

Answer:

Land for his soldiers Settlement of a Roman territory.

Explanation:

Pompey had prestige in Rome but he also faced a lot of opposition in the Senate from nobles when he tried to get them to give him land for his soldiers as well as to approve settlement of a Roman territory to the east.

When he saw that he would not manage on his own, he turned to Caesar who already had Crassus on his side. Together they formed the First Triumvirate and Caesar pushed through Pompey's request for land.

Which of the following affected the political participation of African Americans because the
military, which had protected African American rights, was removed from the South
O The Compromise of 1850
The Compromise of 1877
O The Civil Rights Act
O The Freedmen's Bureau

Answers

Answer:

The Compromise of 1877

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1877 affected the political participation of African Americans because the military, which had protected African American rights, was removed from the South.

The Compromise of 1877 is often referred to as The End of Reconstruction because it ended the Reconstruction Era set up by the previous government, starting from Abraham Lincoln.

The Compromise of 1877 led to the end of federal action in southern affairs, which ultimately caused the extensive disenfranchisement of blacks voters. Eventually, Jim Crow laws were enacted in the Southern states by their legislatures.

Que características tienen las primeras explicasiones cosmológicas hechas por los filósofos presocráticos?

Answers

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no se anexan opciones o incisos, podemos comentar lo siguiente.

Las características que tienen las primeras explicaciones cosmológicas hechas por los filósofos presocráticos son las siguientes.

Podemos considerar a Tales de Mileto, como uno de los precursores de las filósofos presocráticos que comenzaron a plantearse preguntas filosóficas con respecto a la cosmología.

Estos filósofos comenzaron a cuestionarse la filosofía de la naturaleza, de todo lo que existe y cuál pudo haber sido su origen.

Importantes filósofos como Anaximandro y Anaxímenes plantearon interesantes postulados sobre el agua como origen de la naturaleza o la importancia del aire para todo lo que existe. Posteriormente llegaría Heráclito de Éfeso con un concepto novedoso para explicar la esencia de las cosas,. Este concepto fue el Logos. El Logos era una especie de cambio constante o "Devenir," como él lo llamó. Elemento que se transforma constantemente y renueva.

New France and the English colonies were established with the understanding that the king or queen would oversee all aspects of society. This is why the English colonies had to fight a war for their right to rule themselves. Even if in practice they had a lot of autonomy, and developed certain forms of self-goverment, formally they were still part of Great Britain, and the english king was the ultimate ruler. New France had a similar situation. The difference is that the rule of the kings of France ended with the French Revolution, and years after, Napoleon rose to power and became dictator. In order to finance the Napoleonic wars in Europe, Napoleon sold most of New France to the emerging United States.
