Select the correct answer. Read the following excerpt about the Inca civilization written by Spanish conquistador, Pedro de Cieza de Leon, taken from the book Chronicles of the Incas. As this kingdom was so vast, in each of the many provinces there were many storehouses filled with supplies and other needful things; thus, in times of war, wherever the armies went they drew upon the contents of these storehouses, without ever touching the supplies of their confederates or laying a finger on what they had in their settlements . . . Then the storehouses were filled up once more with the tributes paid the Inca. If there came a lean year, the storehouses were opened and the provinces were lent what they needed in the way of supplies; then, in a year of abundance, they paid back all they had received. No one who was lazy or tried to live by the work of others was tolerated; everyone had to work. Thus on certain days each lord went to his lands and took the plow in hand and cultivated the earth, and did other things. Even the Incas themselves did this to set an example. And under their system there was none such in all the kingdom, for, if he had his health, he worked and lacked for nothing; and if he was ill, he received what he needed from the storehouses. Based on the excerpt, what can you conclude about the Inca government?
A. It provided for its people during emergency situations.
B. It exploited its poor and needy by overworking them.
C. It differentiated between the elite and the poor laborers.
D. It offered rewards to the empire’s hardest workers.
E. It gave special privileges to the nobility and their allies.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: A. It provided for its people during emergency situations.

Explanation:

The Inca government instituted policy that enabled it to provide for its people and vassals during times of emergency.

According to the extract, they did this by providing food for their citizens from food stores during years where the harvest was not enough (lean). These stores would then be filled up in the better years thus allowing for the cycle to repeat itself.

Answers

Answer:

It did not allow Congress to issue currency.

Explanation:

It gave too much power to the states and it did not allow Congress to issue currency explaining why the Articles of Confederation were considered weak. Thus, options A and D are correct.

The Continental Congress approved the Articles of Confederation on November 15, 1777. This text functioned as the first constitution of the United States. It lasted from March 1, 1781, until the current Constitution took effect in 1789.

On June 11, 1776, the Second Continental Congress established three committees in response to the Lee Resolution's call for the American colonies to declare their own independence. The responsibility of deciding the structure of the confederation of the colonies was assigned to one of the committees. There was one delegate from each colony on this committee. The main author was John Dickinson, a Delaware delegate.

The Articles of Confederation's Dickinson Draft referred to the union as "the United States of America." The Second Continental Congress adopted this after much discussion and rewriting.

which event led to the increased production of corn and wheat in texas during the years of the american civil war.

Answers

Answer:

A need to feed soldiers increased demand for these products.

Explanation:

Texas farms began using new fertilizers and pesticides led to the increased production of corn and wheat in texas during the years of the American civil war.

What do you mean by Production?

Producing something is the act of creating something out of components or raw resources. To put it another way, production employs inputs to produce an output that is fit for consumption—a good or product that has value for a customer or end-user.

Slaves became more in demand as cotton production grew. Due to the Deep South's demand for them, slaves in the Upper South gained a tremendous amount of value as commodities. They were all quickly sold. In America's history, the Second Middle Passage, the second-largest forced migration, resulted from this.

Production fell as a result of the Civil War, but by 1869 350,628 bales of cotton were estimated to have been harvested. The industry was further boosted by the construction of railroads and the deployment of barbed wire in the 1870s. Around 2,178,435 acres yielded 805,284 bales in 1879.

Therefore, Texas farms began using new fertilizers and pesticides.

As a child, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. attended segregated public schools. The law said that black students like King had to go to their own schools, separate from white students. King was a good student, and he graduated high school three years earlier than most people do. He went to college in Atlanta, Georgia. King then went on to study theology, the study of religious faith, at a school in Pennsylvania. This school was not segregated. In fact, King's senior class was mostly white, and he was elected president of it. King's education wasn't finished yet. In 1953, he got yet another degree from a school in Boston: a doctorate in theology. A doctorate is the highest degree that universities give out. This is why King is called "Dr. Martin Luther King Jr."

What is the main idea of the passage?

A
King graduated high school earlier than most people do.

The school in Pennsylvania where King studied theology was not segregated.

King was elected president of his mostly white senior class.
