The correct option is B. Because of the Great Depression, these men needed to work. The infinitive phrase here that functions as a direct object is to work. The easiest way to find out what the direct object is is to ask the question - What? So, what did these men need? To work. Furthermore it could be replaced by the word "it".

A direct object is a noun phrase denoting a person or thing that is the recipient of the action of a transitive verb.

gtnhenbr [62]

The option which best describes what the speaker sees in the "days ahead" is:

A. the fall of America.

This question refers to the poem "America" by Jamaican-American author Claude McKay, more specifically to lines 11 to 14, in which the speaker addresses the fall of America:

"Darkly I gaze into the days ahead,

And see her might and granite wonders there,

Beneath the touch of Time's unerring hand,

Like priceless treasures sinking in the sand."

What the speaker means is that he sees the fall of America in "the days ahead." Throughout the poem, the speaker talks of his bittersweet relationship with America. His feelings are somewhere between love and hate or resentment.
Although he can see America's wonders, beauty, and potential, he can also see its flaws - the prejudice, the corruption.
In conclusion, the speaker believes America's fate is a bad one. In the future, the country will fall.

After reading the flashback about the police coming to the Coolidge house, do you think the police were fair?Why or why not?

Liula [17]

Answer:

The police were not fair.

Explanation:

Edward Coolidge was being accused of murdering a 14-year-old girl. He was the last person the girl was seen with and with whom she kept in touch before being found dead, stabbed and with gunshot marks on her body. How Coolidge was the prime suspect in the crime.

The police needed to go to Coolidge's house to search and seize his car and other objects that could be used in the investigation, for that, the police needed a search and seizure warrant. Who signed the search and seizure mandate was the Attorney General of the case and for that reason, the arrival of the police at Coolidge's home was not fair and violates the fourth institutional amendment.

This is because, for a term to be valid, it must be issued by someone who holds an impartial position in the case investigated.
