History

Vinil7 [7]4 years ago

So Della want to get a nice Christmas present for Jim (A watch chain thing). But the thing she knows he wants, costs 20$, while she only has around 1 dollar. Della decides to cut her long hair, and sell it so she can get a present for Jim.
The irony of it though, is later, Della comes home with short hair, and Jim's present, when Jim comes home as well. 
Jim sold his watch to get beautiful combs that Della wanted. Meaning that not only would Della not be able to use the combs, but Jim wouldn't be able to use the watch. So they both put the presents away, and resolve to be happy with what they have.
Hope this helps!:)

What was the result of napoleons invasion of Russia
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Russia lost more than 200,000. A single battle (the Battle of Borodino) resulted in more than 70,000 casualties in one day. The invasion of Russia effectively halted Napoleon's march across Europe, and resulted in his first exile, to the Mediterranean island of Elba.

Why do all states not have bicameral legislature?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

[I]n the state context, I think there's a relatively easy way to do this—have fewer legislators! At the national level, we have a bicameral legislature because of the overall workings of the federal system. But the non-Nebraska states have bicameral legislatures for no real reason. If you simply eliminated the lower houses, you'd end up with substantially fewer state legislators. Then you could pay them more and offer them more staff. It'd also be easier for citizens to keep track of who their elected officials actually are (can you name who represents you in your state legislature?) and make the electoral competition for the seats more fearsome.

Open question: why do states have two chambers? (Seriously).

The U.S. Senate is the product of a compromise between the states. Why do states need to emulate that model? Going back even futher, do we want to follow the lead of a parliamentary system where 1/2 of the leadership was traditionally filled because of birthright? I'm a big fan of the U.S. Senate. I just don't get why there needs to be a New York Senate.

Vanyuwa [196]
The correct answer is C. they tended to be Catholic and Jewish.
A is incorrect because even before, most immigrants were Protestants from England. B is incorrect because most immigrants came from England so they obviously spoke English. D is incorrect because this wasn't a trait of the new immigrants only, but rather of the old ones too. However, what was different about them was their religion, which tended to be Catholicism and Judaism.
