Write an essay examining the different theories presented in each article. Using details from both texts, analyze the evidence each author uses to support his or her claims. Write a well-organized, text-dependent response. Be sure to save time to edit and review your work for complete sentences, spelling, punctuation, and appropriate language.

Answers

Answer:

There are different theories about the lost colonists of Roanoke and what happened to them. Even though they disappeared in 1590, the mystery remains unsolved and with ongoing investigations.

In the article "Have We Found the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island?" one of the main theories is that local Native American tribes killed the colonists due to a previous violent encounter with a group of colonists. The violent group was driven out by local tribes, which leads to thinking that they have done something similar to the next group of colonists.

Another theory is that the group died since they were not prepared for the microbes present in America.

The next theory in this article states that the colonists, due to an unknown problem, split up into smaller groups, which was the order that the previous expedition had if problems arose. Besides, it was the only way they could have survived.

Concerning the previous theory, some researchers think that the colonists left Roanoke Island and went to Croatoan Island, which was the only thing that the new group of settlers found written on a tree. Also, as they split into groups, some might have gone to a nearby Native American Town that adopted the colonists.

The article "What Happened to the Lost Colony at Roanoke?" coincides with the theories that the Lost Colony was killed or that they moved and encountered a nearby Native American that adopted them.

The two different theories that this article present is that they might have been abducted by Native Americans, or that they tried to sail back to England. The idea that supports that they sailed is that during this time, a naval war between Spain and England took place, and Queen Elizabeth I called on every available ship for the war. The lost colony may have encountered the Spaniards and had a fatal end.

In conclusion, there are various theories about the lost colony, but nothing has been proved yet. Special equipment and a scientists' large group are still working on this case and trying to place every piece of evidence that they find together to solve the mystery.

Explanation:

The two texts talk about the theories concerning the lost colony, a group of new settlers in Roanoke Island that disappeared in 1590 without leaving any trace.

Both texts talk about the possibility that Native Americans killed the group or that a nearby Native American town adopted them. Some studies, including DNA tests on Native Americans in the area, had been done, but there is no enough information to conclude.

Another investigation involved state-of-the-art technology to find buried pieces of the colony, but they could not find any evidence about these people in particular.

Concerning history, we can see that a war took place between England and Spain during the colony's disappearance. The Spaniards might have killed the people. Also, some investigators believe that Native Americans killed the settlers' group because they had a violent encounter with a previous group that they took out of their lands because of how they treat them and their lands.

There are many theories, each of them with a different reason supporting it, but nothing is certain yet.

As regards the essay's structure, we should write an introduction, where we make our statement. Then, we develop the theories in different paragraphs. To conclude, we write our statement again in a reformulated way.

Write four to five sentences supporting the inference that the British waited until they were sure the telegram would encourage the US to enter the war. Identify at least two pieces of evidence from the passage, and explain how that evidence leads to the inference.​

Answers

Answer:

The British waited until they were sure the telegram provoked the US to enter the war.

Admiral William Hall knew that outrage was growing in America over Germany's announcement late in the day of January 31 that the German navy would resume unrestricted submarine warfare. Hall knew that the United States was close enter in the war, so Hall waited until February 24, thinking that Arthur Zimmermann telegram would make the U.S. join the Allied forces. He showed the telegram without revealing that the British deciphered the German codes.

Zimmermann –German Foreign Secretary- had sent a telegram to Count Von Bernstoff, the German ambassador in Washington, with the intention to convince Mexico to support Germany in the war.

Explanation:

Answer:

The details in this passage lead to the inference that the British waited until they were sure the telegram would encourage the US to enter the war. Hall knew that "outrage was growing in America over Germany's announcement late in the day of January 31 that the German navy would resume unrestricted submarine warfare." Hall knew that the US was close to getting involved in the war, but he waited until "February 24, when Hall sensed that the Zimmermann telegram would tip the balance in favor of the U.S. joining the Allied forces." Because Hall waited to share the telegram, a logical inference is that he wanted to be sure that it would be effective when he did.
