Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct option is B

The battle of Saratoga was one of the most important wars fought during the course of the war of independence of the United States. Its outcome contributed, to a large extent, to deciding the final outcome of the contest in favor of the continental army. This battle took place between September 19 and October 17, 1777 in Saratoga, a region located between Boston and the Great Lakes area, in the vicinity of the Hudson River. The victory strengthened the possibility of triumph of the citizen militias over a line army, which precipitated the support of France (1778) and the Spanish Empire (1779) to the American independence cause.

What issues divided the country at the end of the Era of Good Feelings?

Answers

Answer:

What divided the country in the era of good feelings was the sectionalism created by regional differences, where each population became loyal to its region.

Explanation:

The Era of Good Feelings was a historic period in the USA representing the feeling of unity among the American population after the war of 1812. This era was marked by little contention between political parties and the union of these countries in favor of the country's growth. However, even with the feeling of unity, sectionalism has become high in the country, this is because the population has become so loyal to their region to the point of ignoring or overriding the wishes of other regions to defend the desires of their home.

There a lot of different reason, but several would be the "Tariff of Abominations", political parties and public debt.

Shang dynasty, Wade-Giles romanization Shang, the first recorded Chinese dynasty for which there is both documentary and archaeological evidence. The Shang dynasty was the reputed successor to the quasi-legendary first, or Xia, dynasty. The dates given for the founding of the Shang dynasty vary from about 1760 to 1520 bc; dates for the dynasty’s fall also vary from 1122 to 1030 bc. The period of the dynasty’s rule has traditionally been dated 1766–1122 bc; however, more recent archaeological work has placed the Shang’s starting date at about 1600 bc and has identified the dynasty’s end as being 1046 bc. The latter part of the Shang dynasty, from the reign of Pangeng onward (i.e., c. 1300 bc), has also been called the Yin dynasty. Shang China was centred in the North China Plain and extended as far north as modern Shangdong and Hebei provinces and westward through present Henan province. The kings of the Shang are believed to have occupied several capitals one after another, one of them possibly at modern Zhengzhou, where there are rich archaeological finds, but they settled at Anyang in the 14th century bc. The king appointed local governors, and there was an established class of nobles as well as the masses, whose chief labour was in agriculture. The king issued pronouncements as to when to plant crops, and the society had a highly developed calendar system with a 360-day year of 12 months of 30 days each. It was in this period that Chinese writing began to develop, and the symbol for “moon” was—as it remains—that also for “month.” The calendar took cognizance of both lunar and solar cycles; and, when it became necessary to adjust the basically lunar year to the seasonal reality of the solar year, intercalary months were added.

Musical instruments had evidently come down from the Xia or whatever society preceded the Shang, for the early instruments of the latter were well developed and included a clay ocarina, tuned chimes of stone, and bells and drums of bronze. (Legend traces the origin of pipes of bamboo earlier, even before the mythical Xia.)

The architects of the Shang period built houses of timber over rammed-earth floors, with walls of wattle and daub and roofs of thatch. Tombs were dug in clay, and their walls show traces of paintings that strongly resemble some of the ornamentation and animal shapes reflected in the outstanding bronzework of the period. The earliest bronzes of the Shang were primitive, but a course of development is evident that culminates in elegant ceremonial objects as well as a substantial range of cooking and serving dishes and various utensils and ornaments. There was a three-legged li for cooking, and upon it could be fitted a bronze zeng, a bowl with a pierced bottom to function as a steamer—together called a yan. Serving bowls were often stemmed, and pouring vessels, such as the gu, had long spouts; these and numerous other vessels were often richly decorated.

Pottery objects were abundant, and Shang potters made fired-clay sectional molds for casting bronzes. They also used clay molds to imprint decorations into clay vessels—whose shapes in many cases clearly inspired designs in bronze. Some of the pottery gives evidence of possibly having been shaped on a potter’s wheel. Pottery included dishes and bowls in a white glaze for ceremonial and ritual use, as well as black pottery and a rich brown glaze for more mundane purposes.

Jade carving became quite advanced during the Shang dynasty; ceremonial weapons of jade were made, as well as jade fittings for actual weapons. Jade figurines included both human and animal shapes, carved in the round in careful detail. Many of these have been found in tombs of the period. Other funerary art ran a gamut in size from tiny objects of jade or carved bone and ivory (sometimes inlaid with turquoise) to chariots of lacquered wood. Larger sculptures in marble followed animal motifs. Hope I helped:) source book

Read the excerpt from "A Quilt of a Country." Once these disparate parts were held together by a common enemy, by the fault lines of world wars and the electrified fence of communism. With the end of the cold war there was the creeping concern that without a focus for hatred and distrust, a sense of national identity would evaporate, that the left side of the hyphen—African-American, Mexican-American, Irish-American—would overwhelm the right. What is the connotative meaning of fault lines in this excerpt? something powerful and threatening something familiar and interesting something harmless and pleasant something amusing and impressive

Answers

"Fault lines" connotes powerful and threatening divisions that once united the country against common enemies and conflicts. Therefore, option A is correct.

"Fault lines" symbolize potent and menacing divisions that historically united the country through shared adversaries, like fractures within the Earth's crust capable of unleashing seismic upheavals.

However, with the end of the Cold War, concerns emerged that the absence of a unifying focus against hatred and distrust could erode the sense of national identity, possibly overshadowed by the diverse identities represented by the left side of the hyphen—African-American, Mexican-American, Irish-American—thus emphasizing the delicate balance between unity and diversity within the nation.

Therefore, option A is correct.
