Answer:
(A) Taino, Arawakan-speaking people who at the time of Christopher Columbus's exploration inhabited what are now Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola (Haiti and the Dominican Republic), Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
(B) Jamaica became the perfect spot for them to settle due to the consistent climate, as well as the abundance of food from the ocean, and the crops that they were able to produce. The Tainos people live off of the sea food but also what the island had to offer them, such as a mix varieties of fruits, and vegetables.
(C) The kalinagos (Caribs) survived mainly by fishing, hunting, and farming. They were skilled craft people and made canoes (hew from huge trees and dug out) which were used to travel to and from the neighboring islands. The Caribs also weaved baskets and were famous for their herbal medicine.

Explanation:
What were some of the defenses that made it almost impossible
to escape Eas
Berlin?
Answer:
Between 1945 and 1988, around 4 million East Germans migrated to the West. 3.454 million of them left between 1945 and the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961. The great majority simply walked across the border or, after 1952, exited through West Berlin. After the border was fortified and the Berlin Wall was constructed, the number of illegal border crossings fell drastically. The numbers fell further as the border defenses were improved over the subsequent decades. In 1961, 8,507 people fled across the border, most of them through West Berlin. The construction of the Berlin Wall that year reduced the number of escapees by 75% to around 2,300 per annum for the rest of the decade. The Wall changed Berlin from being one of the easiest places to cross the border, from the East, to be one of the most difficult. The number of escapees fell further to 868 per annum during the 1970s and to only 334 per annum between 1980 and 1988. However, escapees were never more than a small minority of the total number of emigrants from East Germany. Far more people left the country after being granted official permits, by fleeing through third countries or by being ransomed to the West German government. During the 1980s, only about 1% of those who left East Germany did so by escaping across the border.

In at least 100 words, describe how Thomas Paine uses personification as a rhetorical technique in the American crisis. Use evidence from the text to support your answer.
Answer:
Thomas Paine personifies America as a woman, by referring to the nation as "her, she" etc.
Explanation:
Personification is the giving of human or living attributes to non-living things or abstract ideas. In other words, when non-human things are given human characteristics, it is not as personification.
Thomas Paine uses numerous rhetorical devices in his "American Crisis", one of which is personification. He personifies America as a woman, a lady in his statement "America did not, nor does not want force; but she wanted a proper application of that force." (The Crisis I)
He again uses this same personification in chapter II, "Perhaps you thought America too was taking a nap, and therefore chose, like Satan to Eve, to whisper the delusion softly, lest you should awaken her."
Such personifications help imagine the country as a person, and easy to relate to the issues troubling the great nation.
Answer:
In Thomas Paine's pamphlet titled The American Crisis, he makes use of many types of figurative language, but in particular, he uses personification as a rhetorical technique. First and foremost, Thomas Paine personifies America as a whole by referring to the nation with the pronouns "she" and "her," suggesting that America is feminine or a woman. This is done intentionally on the part of Thomas Paine so that he may further his message that America is one nation; therefore, the people of the nation should stand and fight together for one single cause. By suggesting that America is a woman, or rather, one single person, Paine's audience will recognize that America is not just each colony divided; it is one nation under liberty.

Read the paragraph.
Before the Industrial Revolution, most goods were made by hand, in peoples's homes. Workers would buy raw
materials and complete each step in the process to make a finished product. Manufacturing by hand took a
long time, and therefore, the prices for finished goods was high. Industrialization changed all that. Machines
took over the manufacturing process. These machines were much more efficient than workers creating items
by hand. This meant that many more items could be produced, drastically reducing their price, and making
them more affordable for consumers.
Which would be the best example to use to support the information in this body paragraph?
O The price of cotton cloth declined more than 50% from 1700 to 1800.
O The price of shoes doubled from 1700 to 1800.
O Fewer people owned firearms in 1800 than in 1700.
O Fewer people lived in rural areas in 1800 than in 1700.
Answer: The price of cotton cloth declined more than 50% from 1700 to 1800.
Explanation:
As a result of the Industrial Revolution, goods became cheaper because factories took over the production of goods that people had normally done in their homes. The efficiency of these factories ensured that more goods could be produced which therefore reduced the price as manufactured goods were now more widespread.
This is why the price of cotton declined by more than 50% from the 1700s which was before the Industrial Revolution to the 1800s which was after the Industrial Revolution.

Answer: the original U.N. partition plan of the Palestinian Mandate

After the first World War, the British took over the administration of Palestine and overtime, more and more Jews arrived even though they were still the minority. After the second World War saw the Nazi genocide against Jews, the British came under pressure to establish a homeland for Jews so such things never happen again.
The British therefore let in more Jews and things escalated and got violence and the British appealed to the UN for a solution. The UN decided to divide Palestine into two with some parts going to Arabs and the rest going to Jews.
