Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved.
The League, like Local 25, had expected a turnout of four or five thousand. They were bowled over by this army, utterly unprepared for it. They had organized strikes in the garment trade, small ones, usually confined to a single shop, but never before had they undertaken something on so vast a scale. They might fail, might be laughed at by the whole of New York as well as John Dyche and the ILGWU men, and all the same they knew this was the challenge they'd been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.
What conclusion can be drawn by connecting knowledge of the historical time period with information in the text?
1 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League caused New York to make fun of men’s labor unions.
2 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League made the shirtwaist makers appear irresponsible.
3 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League gained enough strength in numbers to have some power.
4 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League destroyed women’s chances for fair labor practices.
Answer:
Explanation:
3 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League gained enough strength in numbers to have some power. sorry if its wrong
Answer:
Explanation:
You need an answer that showed they were not expecting the huge turnout that they got, but they realized that this is the chance they had been waiting for. They might be ridiculed, but they knew, if no one else did, that their numbers meant power.
C is the best answer.
Two students answered the question "Why do you use a citation and
formatting style in your research paper?" Which answer do you think is more
correct?
A. We use a citation and formatting style because it's a way to organize and
help our readers quickly locate the outside sources we reference.
B. We use a citation and formatting style because it helps us fully flesh out
our topic ideas, and present them in the most scholarly way to our
readers.
Answer:
A. We use a citation and formatting style because it's a way to organize and help our readers quickly locate the outside sources we reference.
Explanation:
When you quote, in an academic text, you are referring to another text that served as a research source where you extracted relevant and important information for the work you are writing. This is very important to enrich your work and give credibility.
However, you must quote in a specific format, which is necessary for readers of your work to know that the text has citations and to be able to quickly locate the external sources to which you refer.

Characters Description Additional Details Mr. Summers (example) Runs the lottery It is obvious that he is a leader by the way the town listens to his directions in preparing for the lottery (49-53) Mr. Bill Hutchinson Mrs. Tessie Hutchinson
Answer:
Character- Mr. Summers.
Description- Runs the lottery.
Additional Details- It is obvious that he is a leader by the way the town listens to his directions in preparing for the lottery.
Character- Mr. Bill Hutchinson.
Description- The husband of the unlucky winner of the lottery.
Additional Details- He seems very supportive of the lottery's process and willingly showed his blank paper. He also "forced the slip of paper out of her hand", signifying his full cooperation and acceptance of the ritual.
Character- Mrs. Tessie Hutchinson.
Description- The unlucky victim or 'winner' of the lottery.
Additional details- She was happy to be involved in the annual ritual and wouldn't miss it. But when the lot fell on her family, she finds fault in it.
Explanation:
Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" revolves around the annual ritual of a village where a 'winner' gets chosen to be 'stoned to death' as a sacrificial lamb. The story delves into the theme of why it is dangerous to blindly follow the rituals or traditions established.
The characters Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson are the main protagonist of the story around which the story develops and revolves around. Bill Hutchinson is the husband of the unlucky victim Tessie Hutchinson. While she seems supportive of the ritual, she changed her stance by accusing the process of being "unfair" once the lot fell on her family. Bill, on the other hand, is fully accepting of the result, even forcing the paper off of Tessie's hand and also telling her to "shut up" when she accuses the "unfair' process.
How does the promiscuous breed" to which Crevecoeur refers at the beginning of the second paragraph compare with
the Americans today? How might he characterize Americans in our time?
Letter from an American farmer
Answer:
Explanation:
Crevecoeur in his "Letters from an American farmer" compares the ruling aristocrats, Bishops, nobles, and rich people of European countries to "promiscuous breed" because they inherited all the wealth and resources of the poor people for their own personal gains.
Similarly this practice of accumulating wealth by few powerful people is growing rapidly in America today. He might characterize Americans in our time as selfish and apathetic because most people choose to remain silent while the country which was was once known as 'land of opportunity' is becoming like aristocratic Europe.

Read this passage:
It was his own fault or, rather, his mistake. He should not
have built the fire under the spruce tree. He should have
built it in the open. But it had been easier to pull the twigs
from the brush and drop them directly on the fire. Now the
tree under which he had done this carried a weight of snow
on its boughs. No wind had blown for weeks, and each
bough was fully freighted. Each time he had pulled a twig
he had communicated a slight agitation to the tree-an
imperceptible agitation, so far as he was concerned, but an
agitation sufficient to bring about the disaster. High up in
the tree one bough capsized its load of snow. This fell on
the boughs beneath, capsizing them. This process
continued, spreading out and involving the whole trechot
grew like an avalanche, and it descended without warning
upon the man and the fire, and the fire was blotted out!
Where it had burned was a mantle of fresh and disordered
snow.

As a senior prefect of your school write a letter to the headteacher discuissing two reasons why the school should instill moral values into the students
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Universal Model school,
90 Aba Owerri Road,
Umungasi,
Aba.
October 24, 2020.
The Principal,
Universal Model School,
Aba.
Sir,
NEED TO INSTILL DISCIPLINE IN STUDENTS OF UNIVERSAL MODEL SCHOOL ABA
It is with utmost expediency that I write this letter to you. It is unfortunate to say that our dear citadel of learning has descended into a moral quagmire owing to the actions of certain miscreants who have found their way into the school as students.
It is important to restate the fact that the school is charged with the responsibility of nurturing the next generation of leaders in any country. For this reason, the school must stand out as an epitome of discipline and sound moral conduct. This is why I plead with you sir, to take the issue of moral decadence in the school very seriously.
A few days ago, I discovered certain students loitering around the refectory area after lights out. I recommended to the dean of student affairs that the affected students should be suspended from the school for two weeks as a means of mitigating the impact of the collapsing disciplinary code in the school but the case was treated with levity.
This has further emboldened other students to break school rules without any attendant consequences.
Sir, any system that winks at lawlessness has set the stage for anarchy to overwhelm such system.
I hereby call on you sir, to use your good office to do the needful in the area of instilling discipline into the students.
Yours Faithfully,
Jude Njoku
Senior prefect
Langston is completing a research project about the famous German pianist and composer Ludwig von Beethoven for school. Which text would best fit his particular academic purpose? A. A historical account about the life of Beethoven B. A blog by a piano teacher about her favorite German music C. A movie review about a film on the life of a famous German pianist D. A magazine article about the most popular pianists in the last decade
Answer:
A. A historical account about the life of Beethoven.
Explanation:
A research project is an act of trying to provide enough information by researching the topic. This process will provide the best and most truthful account of the research topic.
In Langston's research topic, he needs to finish his academic paper about Beethoven. By looking or referring to a text that contains the historical account of the famous composer and pianist, Langston will be able to provide the best and truthful account of Beethoven. A blog by a piano teacher, a movie review, or even a magazine article is just some third party details about the composer while a historical detail will contain the most truthful and detailed history of the composer.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
