Of Plymouth Plantation is significant because it chronicles facts about the establishment of the Pilgrim Church in England, the group who left for Holland and eventually the trip on the Mayflower to the New World on November 11, 1620, and the early days of colonial America. Bradford was governor of the colony for 33 years. Among many things he writes about, maybe the most famous is the first Thanksgiving.
It is also significant because it is the most lucidly reliable account of those early days in American history. One of the lessons about the Puritans in reference to their common beliefs or personalities is that they came to the New World seeking religious freedom. Bradford's work draws on many Biblical parallels. They wanted to "purify" (hence the name "Puritans") the Church of England, believing that the Protestant Reformation did not go far enough in attempting this. It also seems that their fervor for this purification in the new community in the new world eventually declined; it was said that Bradford wrote some of this text with a nostalgia, implying that their focus on their role as religious crusaders/founders of a new world gave way to expansion and maybe more focus on other aspects of life.

Answer:
Parent involvement in a child's education is consistently found to be positively associated with a child's academic performance. However, there has been little investigation of the mechanisms that explain this association. The present study examines two potential mechanisms of this association: the child's perception of cognitive competence and the quality of the student-teacher relationship. This study used a sample of 158 seven-year old participants, their mothers, and their teachers. Results indicated a statistically significant association between parent involvement and a child's academic performance, over and above the impact of the child's intelligence. A multiple mediation model indicated that the child's perception of cognitive competence fully mediated the relation between parent involvement and the child's performance on a standardized achievement test. The quality of the student-teacher relationship fully mediated the relation between parent involvement and teacher ratings of the child's classroom academic performance. Limitations, future research directions, and implications for public policy initiatives were discussed.

Answer:
C. resilience of the American people.
Explanation:
the author clearly portraits the king as the bad guy here, and sounds as though he finds what the Americans in Boston did to be funny. "they had a grand tea party" he obviously likes the idea of what they did. and " the people from Maine to Georgia were all of one mind." he's showing that everyone in the 13 colonies was prepared to stand up and fight for what they believed was right.
