The Mayflower Compact is a written agreement composed by a consensus of the new Settlers arriving at New Plymouth in November of 1620. They had traveled across the ocean on the ship Mayflower which was anchored in what is now Provincetown Harbor near Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The Mayflower Compact was drawn up with fair and equal laws, for the general good of the settlement and with the will of the majority. The Mayflower’s passengers knew that the New World’s earlier settlers failed due to a lack of government. They hashed out the content and eventually composed the Compact for the sake of their own survival.
The original document is said to have been lost, but the writings of William Bradford’s journal Of Plymouth Plantation and in Edward Winslow’s Mourt’s Relation: A Journal of the Pilgrims at Plymouth are in agreement and accepted as accurate. The Mayflower Compact reads:

<span>"In the name of God, Amen. We, whose names are underwritten, the Loyal Subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord, King James, by the Grace of God, of England, France and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, e&. Having undertaken for the Glory of God, and Advancement of the Christian Faith, and the Honour of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the northern parts of Virginia; do by these presents, solemnly and mutually in the Presence of God and one of another, covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil Body Politick, for our better Ordering and Preservation, and Furtherance of the Ends aforesaid; And by Virtue hereof to enact, constitute, and frame, such just and equal Laws, Ordinances, Acts, Constitutions and Offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the General good of the Colony; unto which we promise all due submission and obedience. In Witness whereof we have hereunto subscribed our names at Cape Cod the eleventh of November, in the Reign of our Sovereign Lord, King James of England, France and Ireland, the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth. Anno Domini, 1620." </span>

What is the main organizational structure the student uses in the report? Ideas are presented in order of least important to mos
Bess [88]

Answer:

Topic sentences are followed by supporting details.

Explanation:

When writing a report, the student can adopt different organizational structures that match more with the text he will write. However, one of the most efficient structures for writing a report is the use of topical phrases followed by supporting details.

This structure is efficient, because it allows the author to establish an argument or an essential statement for the report, with several supporting phrases that prove that the statement or argument is true, in addition to enriching the text and showing that the author has researched and prepared to write it.

Create a short story in 200+ words of a person who is passionately in love with someone. How complicated is the relationship? Wh
kotykmax [81]

Answer: He loves me. I once thought I would be able to love, perhaps if I moved in with him. I cannot return his love. For this reason, it is very complicated. I am disturbed by my inability to return his love. I am driven to insanity.

Explanation:

Diego, as charming as they come. And if you weren't convinced by the way he strides, the confident but light, jovial tone in his voice, he'll catch your breath by a flash of his adorable dimples.

No charm, levity, marks his features now. Instead he is pained, confused. His hair is a tousled chaos, a charcoaled maroon. He holds himself, not by striding, but in a broken manner. He is lost.

I am the reason.

It always ends this way. Insanity is expecting the outcome to be different, when you know how the finale's script reads.

I am a broken plate. I used to be whole. I believed in love.

I was passed around. Each time I was discarded of, stains of my self image were left. Eventually no one wanted I, the stained, chipped plate. Upon realizing this I let myself shatter. I fell to the floor.

No longer, do I believe in love.

Oh, but I was so hopeful. See, to feel, to love, is to be human.

If I do not, then I have no soul, no humanity.

I do not. Therefore, I have no soul no humanity.

As I do not have soul, nor humanity, I am better off dead.

This is where the insanity starts, how it festers in my mind. I become a slave to it. It works at me until I have no will. Back broken, I am tired. I am destroyed.

See, I needed to give it one last try. I knew him, Diego, a soul of vitality and warmth. I needed to know if warmth could be spread into my darkness.

I put on my mask of emotions. We went on dates, I played my part well, mask never slipping.

Time passed, he told me he loved me. I truly felt nothing, but with my mask, I felt everything.

I must leave him.

My humanity has left me.

I must leave the world.
