adapted from The Expansion of the United States

from A Short History of the World

by H.G. Wells


The region of the world that displayed the most immediate and striking results from the new inventions in transport was North America. Politically, the United States embodied, and its constitution crystallized, the liberal ideas of the mid-eighteenth century. It dispensed with state-church or crown, it would have no titles, it protected property jealously as a method of freedom, and it gave nearly every adult male citizen a vote. Its method of voting was crude, and therefore its political life soon fell, but that did not prevent the newly emancipated population from developing an energy, enterprise, and public spirit far beyond that of any other contemporary population.

Then came that acceleration of locomotion. It is a curious thing that America, which owes most to this acceleration in locomotion, has felt it least. The United States has taken the railway, the river steamboat, the telegraph, and so forth as though they were a natural part of their growth. They were not. These things happened to come along just in time to save American unity. The United States of today was made first by the river steamboat, and then by the railway. Without these things, the present United States would have been altogether impossible. The westward flow of population would have been far more sluggish. It might never have crossed the great central plains. The first state established beyond the river was the steamboat state of Missouri in 1821. But the rest of the distance to the Pacific was done in a few decades.

If we had the resources then, it would be interesting to show a map of North America year by year from 1600 onward, with little dots to represent hundreds of people, each dot a hundred, and stars to represent cities of a hundred thousand people.

For two hundred years, the reader would see the little dots creeping slowly along the coastal districts and navigable waters, spreading still more gradually into Indiana, Kentucky, and so forth. Then somewhere about 1810 would come a change. Things would get more lively along the river courses. The dots would be multiplying and spreading. That would be the steamboat.

Then from about 1850 onward would come the black lines of the railways, and after that the little black dots would not simply creep but run. Then suddenly here and then there would appear the first stars to indicate the first great cities of a hundred thousand people. First one or two and then a multitude of cities—each like a knot in the growing net of the railways.

The growth of the United States is a process that has no precedent in the world's history; it is a new kind of occurrence. Such a community could not have come into existence before, and if it had, without railways it would certainly have dropped to pieces long before now. Without railways or telegraph, it would be far easier to administer California from Pekin than from Washington. But this great population of the United States of America has not only grown outrageously; it has kept uniform. Nay, it has become more uniform. The man of San Francisco is more like the man of New York today than the man of Virginia was like the man of New England a century ago. The United States is being woven by railway, by telegraph, more and more into one vast unity, speaking, thinking, and acting harmoniously with itself. Soon aviation will be helping in the work.

Answer:whats the question

Explanation:

Which part of speech is "long" in the sentence below? My grandmother loved to take long walks in the woods with me.

Answers

Answer:

an adverb

Explanation:

Indeed, an adverb is one of the parts of speech in the English language. Basically, it is often used to modify verbs or groups of words in a sentence by telling us about the time, place, manner, or degree of what is been said.

So in this example, the word "long" acts as an adverb that modifies the verb "walk". In other words, it tells us the degree of walk the grandmother takes with her grandchild. Thus, the degree of the walk they used to have is expressed.

“Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar,
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quartered with the hands of war,
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds;
And Caesar’s spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch’s voice
Cry ‘Havoc’ and let slip the dogs of war,
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.”

Who can you infer that the speaker blames for this insanity?

A) The conspiracy

C) Caesar
D) Octavius

Sonnet 60 & the mowers song. Which sentence best summarizes the theme shared by both poems?
A. Nature is extremely powerful.
B. Love withers like beautiful flowers.
C. Mowers have a difficult job.
D. Time changes all aspects of life.

Answers

Answer:

D. Time changes all aspects of life

Explanation:

Shakespeare in Sonnet 60 describes the changes that come with time. In making these changes, the poet makes comparisons with nature. He compared the passage of time with the waves and tides which rush to replace each other. He also compares human life to the beautiful rise of the sun and its subsequent fall.

In Mower's Song, the poet also has strong ties with nature which are soon overshadowed by the presence of a girl. In time, he forgets about the grasses but they seem to be doing well without him who is now smitten by the girl's love. These two poems show that time changes all aspects of life.

i think this is part o it but im not to sure

hope this helps

The narrator of this narrative, Nick Carraway, has relocated to West Egg, Long Island in an effort to develop into a "well-rounded" man and to simulate the experience of being a soldier in World War I. Nick returns home that evening and witnesses Gatsby leaving his mansion.

Why is Nick Carraway in love with Gatsby?

In that book, Nick is enamoured by Jay Gatsby, once James Gatz of North Dakota, for his capacity to envision him into reality and for his bravery in putting everything on the line for the love of a beautiful woman. In a reading of Gatsby, Nick is in love with Gatsby rather than just with him.

Throughout the entire book, Nick's relationship with Jordan Baker acts as a metaphor for this internal conflict. Her intelligence and vivacity draw him in, but her dishonesty and lack of consideration for others repel him just as much.

Thus, The narrator of this narrative, Nick Carraway.

Are middle school relationships destined to fail or to succeed? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Sometimes, I’m a cynic. My belief in the inevitable failure of 95% of high school relationships to last until marriage exemplifies this.

The majority of high school students want to fit in. It’s human nature – at this adolescent stage of life, fitting in is as important as getting good grades or scoring high on the SAT. Even more important, to some. I don’t believe in the stereotypical groups presented in television shows: the jocks, the preps, the goths, loners, nerds, etc. However, I do think that there are variances to those archetypes that accumulate in what I like to call the “high school caste system”. More about that in a future post.
