Answer: The poem "Shoulders," by Naomi Shihab Nye reflects on our lives today.

Explanation: In the poem, Nye tells us about a man crossing a street in the rain with a young child he is carrying.He must use caution crossing the street. He must caution to avoid the raindrops, all the while looking, listening and caring for the child he is carrying. The symbolism of course is, that we are that person carrying the child, and it is our responsibility to do all we can to care for, nurture and protect that child because our society is such today that there are many raindrops, puddles and speeding autos we need to avoid, not in the literal sense but certainly figuratively. In this time of pandemic, the message could not be clearer-we need to care for one another. We need to take care of one another, because we are all in this together.

The map shows the union blockade of Florida costs during the Civil War. Which statement best explains why it was hard for the un
EleoNora [17]

Answer: A. Floria has a long coastline, which enabled some ships to sneak past the blockade and supply the confederate.

Explanation:

Soon after the Civil War broke out, General Winfield Scott under his “Anaconda Plan" engaged in a widespread blockade of Confederate Ports to crash their economy and bring about an end to the war faster.

Even though Florida had the lowest population of the Confederate States, the Union recognised that their long coastline would present a logistical problem and blockaded as many ports as they could.

However, because of the long coastline, there were many bays and inlets and thus avenues in that could not be guarded effectively which led to the rise of BLOCKADE RUNNERS who were usually British Citizen owned ships supplying the Confederates from the Bahamas and the Virgin Islands.
