Which of the following actions did the British governor take in 1947 in India?
A-promoting overseas trade
B-establishing trade partners
C-bringing back the state of Bengal
D-splitting India into Pakistan and India
Answer: D-splitting India into Pakistan and India
Explanation:
India was to acquire independence from the British in 1947 but serious riots and violence broke out between Muslims and Hindus before that. In response, the British decided to divide India into Pakistan, which would be for the Muslims and India which would be predominantly for the Hindus.
This happened in 1947 and led to a huge humanitarian disaster as Muslims from India tried to move to Pakistan and Hindus tried to move to India. There were atrocities committed by both sides as this happened.
Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
Neither reply nor pity came from him,
but in one stride he clutched at my companions
and caught two in his hands like squirming puppies
to beat their brains out, spattering the floor.
Then he dismembered them and made his meal,
gaping and crunching like a mountain lion—
everything: innards, flesh, and marrow bones.
What can be inferred about the Cyclops?
A - He has gone hungry for a very long time.
B - He is savage and brutal like a wild animal.
C - He is terrified of Odysseus and his men.
D - He is very similar to his father, Poseidon.
Answer:
B-He is savage and brutal likes a wild animal
Answer:
C - He is terrified of Odysseus and his men.
Explanation:
The epic simile in this excerpt shows How helpless Odysseus's men are in the clutches of the Cyclops.
The question is not complete since it does not provide the options to respond to it, here are the options:
* How helpless Odysseus's men are in the clutches of the Cyclops.
* How violently and uncivilized the Cyclops behaves himself.
* That Cyclops is enormous in comparison to Odysseus and his men.
* That there is no possible escape for Odysseus and his men.
This excerpt from The Odyssey gives a vivid description of the physical description of Cyclops which makes him a terrible adversary that would make any warrior look like a little puppy no matter how strong they are, all of the adjectives that are used to create the image of the character reinforce that concept.

The history of our nation was under the different
colonizers and their cultures have greatly
influenced and blended well into our folk dances. Do you agree or disagree? then why?
Answer:
Yes.
Explanation:
Yes, I agree with the statement that different colonizers and their cultures have greatly influenced our folk dances because the people under colonizers adopt there traditions as well as some of their culture in every aspect of our life. Those countries who experience no colonization or any other intruders have the real and original traditions that they got from the ancestors so we can conclude that colonizers influenced the folk dances of an area.

for ship and crew.

6. Globalization revolutionized societies around the world during the 20th century. It has allowed people, cultures, and ideas to spread rapidly to areas that may not have had access to them before. But this process is still ongoing. In a three-paragraph essay, offer at least three predictions about how you think globalization will continue to affect the world in the 21st century. Don't just make random guesses though! Your predictions should be realistic and based on trends in globalization that you've learned about.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Indeed, globalization revolutionized societies around the world during the 20th century. It has allowed people, cultures, and ideas to spread rapidly to areas that may not have had access to them before.
Although this process is still ongoing, my predictions about this worldwide phenomenon are the following.
1.- Globalization will continue to affect the world in the 21st century. However, more and more nations are changing their minds and had elected conservative candidates or nationalistic politicians to be their presidents. This completely changes the nature of globalization.
2.- Nations will continue to trade but there will be more emphasis on the creation of trade associations or regions to only trade between the existing members. The differences between UMSCA (former NAFTA-the North America Trade Agreement) with the European Union(EU), would be more prominent in the exchange of products and services.
3.- Politics and militarism will represent a major hinder to globalization.
Political differences had threatened the world with the use of weapons in different regions of the planet. The Middle East, for instance, or the continuous nuclear threat of countries such as Iran or North Korea. These regional conflicts will represent considerable obstructions to globalization and trade.
The fear of pandemics and the spread of disease will represent a major threat to globalization.

three to five paragraphs (introduction, body paragraphs, counterclaim paragraph, conclusion)
an introduction that introduces the topic, explains why it is important, and states your thesis/claim (World War II was a continuation of World War I or World War II was not a continuation of World War I)
logical arguments that support your thesis/claim
evidence to support each argument
a counterclaim and evidence to support the counterclaim
explanation regarding how the evidence supporting the thesis/claim is stronger than the evidence supporting the counterclaim

World War II was a distinct global conflict with unique causes and consequences, separate from World War I, as it emerged from new geopolitical dynamics, fascist ideologies, and different motivations among nations.
The argument is that World War II was a unique and separate global conflict with its own causes, dynamics, and outcomes. It was not merely a continuation of World War I. While the impact of the Treaty of Versailles and unresolved conflicts were factors in both wars, World War II was brought on by new geopolitical dynamics, the rise of fascist ideologies and various countries diverse motivations.
Between the two wars, there were political, economic and social developments that paved the way for a conflict that was very different including the formation of alliances and the aggressive expansionist policies of some countries. In light of this considering World War II as a continuation of World War I oversimplifies the intricate forces that shaped each conflict and ignores its unique historical significance.

2. A-Action What is happening in the cartoon?
Answer: Benjamin Franklin is appealing to the 13 colonies to unite against the French.
Explanation:
During the early stages of the French and Indian War, the British were engaged in another war in Europe and so could not adequately protect her colonies in the Americas. This led to the French and their Indian allies attacking and inflicting some defeats on the American colonies.
In response to this, Benjamin Franklin published an article in his newspaper bemoaning the disunity of the colonies. He told them that they needed to unite against the French threat or they would be defeated and wiped out.
The cartoon accompanied the article to show that if the colonies did not come together, they would die but if they united, the snake i.e. them, would live.

why was it important that literature was written in the everyday language than in latin
Answer:
It is important because not everyone in the world can understand Latin language. If literature was only written in Latin, and no one really spoke that language, literature would be something many avoided due to a lack of understanding. Having something in the everyday language of a place allows for more places to have a better understanding of something that they wouldn't have understood if the language wasn't one that a person had in their toolbox.

How did the Constitution allow slavery?
Slavery was implicitly recognised in the original Constitution in provisions such as Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, commonly known as the Three-Fifths Compromise, which provided that three-fifths of each state's enslaved population (“other persons”) was to be added to its free population for the purposes of apportioning seats in the United States House of Representatives and direct taxes among the states.
Answer: The original Constitution forbade Congress from establishing legislation against slaves until 1808, 21 years after the first Constitution was signed.
Explanation: Another agreement was reached between constitutional Congress representatives who supported and opposed the slave trade.

PLEASE HURRY Read the passage from The Odyssey - Elpenor.
By night
our ship ran onward toward the Ocean's bourne,
the realm and region of the Men of Winter,
hidden in mist and cloud. Never the flaming
eye of Helios lights on those men
at morning, when he climbs the sky of stars,
nor in descending earthward out of heaven;
ruinous night being rove over those wretches.
Which is the best paraphrase of the passage?
A - It’s always cloudy where the Men of Winter live.
B - It’s always misty where the Men of Winter live.
C - It’s always dark where the Men of Winter live.
D - It’s always sunny where the Men of Winter live.
Answer:
The best paraphrase of the passage is:
C. It's always dark where the Men of Winter live.
Explanation:
This question can be quite tricky, and here is why: the words "mist" and "cloud" are explicitly written in the passage. Of course, our first impulse is to imagine a cloudy or misty place and to choose either option A or option B, or even both. However, we need to keep on reading to fully understand the passage. Notice the speaker says, "Never the flaming eye of Helios lights on those men..." Helios is nothing more than the personification of the sun in Greek mythology. When he says its flaming eye never lights, he basically means his light never shines on those Men of Winter. No light means it is dark. It may be dark due to the excessive mist and clouds, but it is dark nonetheless because the light can't shine through. That is why letter C seems to be the best
