The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, 1820 was inspired by "A real Hessian soldier decapitated by a cannonball at the Battle of White Plains around Halloween in 1776."

Irving wrote a legend while living in England. Some scholars suggest that Irving's story may have been inspired by the folk tales he heard abroad. German, English and Scandinavian folk tales of headless knights chasing unhappy travelers have been told for generations.

The lesson of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is to keep superstitions from shaking you and overwhelming your reason.

The moral of the story is a small town, and the romantic competition between local bullies and school teachers culminates in horrifying night rides. In a small town called Sleepy Hollow, a skinny school teacher named Ichabod Crane comes to town.

Which excerpt from “Everyday Use” best infers the value that Momma places on the quilts? “She can always make some more," I said
aksik [14]

Answer:

“God knows I been saving 'em for long enough with nobody using 'em. I hope she will!”

Explanation:

The excerpt from <em>Everyday Use </em>that best infers the value that Momma places on the quilts is “God knows I been saving 'em for long enough with nobody using 'em. I hope she will!” which clearly shows that she has been saving it for  a long time because she values it.

Value is placed on a thing when it is saved from regular use so it can still retain it value.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

A) It is important to use credible sources in an academic research paper because your audience will expect you to have backed up your assertions with credible evidence. Using evidence that does not come from a credible source of information will not convince your reader that your claim is plausible or even correct.

B) When you create an Access database, you store your data in tables—subject-based lists that contain rows and columns. For instance, you can create a Contacts table to store a list of names, addresses, and telephone numbers, or a Products table to store information about products.

C) To cut to the chase, “key takeaway” refers to any learning point or even teaching moment from a real-life experience. It can also come from reading or observation, or attending a seminar or conference, or even from a small talk encounter.
