The Great Depression was a period of time in the 1930's that experienced an economic depression, meaning that millions of people lost their jobs, the unemployment rate grew tremendously, banks were failing, and many people were struggling to find food because they didn't have any money to live anymore. Poverty was very high during this time. The Great Depression was caused by the stock market crash in 1929. 

People were willing to travel many miles to find work because it was very difficult for people to find jobs in their immediate towns.

The Loss of American Indian Life and Culture. As American settlers pushed westward, they inevitably came into conflict with Indian tribes that had long been living on the land. The result was devastating for the Indian tribes, which lacked the weapons and group cohesion to fight back against such well-armed forces.

This report found generally that the federal government was failing at its goals of protecting Native Americans, their land, and their resources, both personal and cultural.

After the Meriam report, Secretary of the Interior Hubert Work proposed that the Rockefeller Foundation support a survey by the Institute for Government Research. Five years after the Meriam Report, the Federal government began overhauling its Native American policy with the Wheeler-Howard Act (Indian Reorganization Act of 1934).

The egyptian tomb which sentence expresses a primary theme developed in the passage
lakkis [162]

The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer: C. A relationship needs more than a routine

Explanation:

In "The Egyptian Tomb," Beatriz Espejo tells the story of someone who takes his or her mother for lunch every week. Despite having a strict routine to get together regularly, they don´t seem to get along.

Although taking care of the elderly is portrayed as a difficult task, is because of the damaged relationship and not necessarily because of the mother´s age. It´s never said that mothers and daughters can´t get along, and there´re no references to financial hardships. The theme is more likely to be that their routine is not enough, as they still need to work on their relationship.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

"Nothing is perfect. This was one of Mrs. Hopewell's favorite sayings. Another was: that is life! And still another, the most important, was: well, other people have their opinions too. "

Explanation:

Irony is a literary device used when a character, or even the narration, says the opposite of what I really believe and think. An example of this can be seen in the text shown in the question above, in the lines "Nothing is perfect. This was one of Mrs. Hopewell's favorite sayings. Another was: that is life! And still another, the most important, was: well, other people have their opinions too. "

These lines were spoken by Ms. Hopewell, this is because she says that her daughter should not care what people say or think about the mechanical leg she uses, however Ms. Hopewell herself feels sorry for her daughter and ended up saying something contrary to what I really wanted to say.
