Answer:

1) Dickinson was a delegate from Pennsylvania in the Continental Congress (1774–76) and was the principal author of the “Declaration…Setting Forth the Causes and Necessity of Their Taking Up Arms.” He helped prepare the first draft of the Articles of Confederation (1776–77) but voted against the Declaration of Independence (1776) because he still hoped for conciliation with the British. Although he was accused of being a loyalist, he later served in the Pennsylvania militia, rising to the rank of brigadier general

Explanation:

1)

Articles of Confederation, first U.S. constitution (1781–89), which served as a bridge between the initial government by the Continental Congress of the Revolutionary period and the federal government provided under the U.S. Constitution of 1787. Because the experience of overbearing British central authority was vivid in colonial minds, the drafters of the Articles deliberately established a confederation of sovereign states. The Articles were written in 1776–77 and adopted by the Congress on November 15, 1777. However, the document was not fully ratified by the states until March 1, 1781.

On paper, the Congress had power to regulate foreign affairs, war, and the postal service and to appoint military officers, control Indian affairs, borrow money, determine the value of coin, and issue bills of credit. In reality, however, the Articles gave the Congress no power to enforce its requests to the states for money or troops, and by the end of 1786 governmental effectiveness had broken down.

notice the words steinbeck uses to describe the rain and flooding what might the flood symbolize in the story?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The concept of Flood was used as a symbol for signifying the sad overtone of the novel, for representing migration of people and a reference to the Flood of Noah.

Explanation:

In the first part of the Novel the Joad Family was suffering from a drought which caused many families to search for employment elsewhere, leaving their current land (such as the Joads) . California, at that time, was the place said to have an ample amount of opportunities. Therefore, the Joads, like many others, moved to California to survive. However, in the end of the Novel, severe rain began and caused a Flood.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reference Text From Book ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<em>"The rain began with gusty showers, pauses and downpours; and then gradually it settled to a single tempo, small drops and a steady beat, rain that was gray to see through, rain that cut midday light to evening. And at first the dry earth sucked the moisture down and blackened. For two days the earth drank the rain, until the earth was full." </em>(Chapter 29)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The earth consumed the rain, until it could no more. Once it was full, the flooding began . This is a symbol for workers moving to California to find jobs . However, this migration ended up causing California to become full of people. Consequently, there were more people than jobs available and issues started to rise again.

Furthermore, Steinbeck's use of Flood also shades light over the tragic theme of the Novel and as the apocalyptic nature of the flood was used as a reference to the Noah's Ark.
