  • In this sentence Paine refers to Tories.

Explanation:

The American Crisis is a pamphlet composed by a series of articles written by Thomas Paine,<em> (He first wrote Common Sense which played a significant part in convincing the colonists to fight for Independence)</em>. The American Crisis main purpose was to support the Revolution when colonists began to withdraw from the army.

Tories or Loyalists were American colonists that remained loyal to Britain, which is the enemy Paine is talking about in the excerpt.

<em>"Your conduct is an invitation to the enemy"</em> in this sentence Paine talks about how Tories wouldn't stand up against Britain, he described them as people that lived in fear and that were not brave enough.

"Yet no one in a thousand of you has heart enough to join him" in this part of the excerpt Thomas Paine is talking about how in a thousand Tories there was not a single person that was brave enough to join the army of Britain, according to him Britain was only interested in having soldiers not Tories.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1. the acceptance of the church's authority

2. The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy

Explanation:

1. The feature of medieval life reflected here is the acceptance of the church's authority.

The Canterbury Tales has about 24 stories with about 17,000 lines. The work was written by Geoffrey Chaucer Geoffrey around a period of 1387 and 1400. 

The Canterbury Tales is medieval literature and has great poetic power and entertainment value. The tales gives insight into the different social classes of that century, including their clothes, languages and the recreational activities of the time.

2. Based on the excerpt taken from this book, I can say that the statement that describes the satire here is The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy.

Chaucer used Satire to expose the hypocrisy of people and institutions who instead of reliving the poor from their poverty and leading them on a part of spirituality, try to make profits out of their suffering and show less concern about their suffering. The pardoner is a part of the church and should share in the suffering of others but instead he insists on getting the best food and drinks from people in poverty. He also sells redemption at a price

1.Tubman put herself at risk of recapture and death to free other slaves, breaking the law to do so. In the context of the text
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

1: Tubman was a great leader who sacrificed her life to save those of others. She was an amazing person in general and did good in various ways. One way she promoted good was by helping others.

2: Americans can do their research and talk about the lesser-known heroes in school, out of school, at work, out of work, etc. They could also send letters to officials to make them more largely known. I think that many heroes end up going unnoticed because people nowadays are more into celebreties rather than other people who helped their communities.

SO THIS IS FOR THAT DUDE LOOKING FOR MY WHOLE ESSAY THIS IS WHAT I SUBMITTED JUST PLZ RESTATE CUS IF U DONT THEY CAN TELL
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: “Yuck” Kate yelled as Mr. Jacks bulldog licked her once again. “Ive told you before we don’t have any more dog food.... or any food”. They had escaped the force field the day (T) before and were only able to take so much food as the supplies were low. They now were in the middle of a field with few trees for shelter. Mr. Jacks and Darby had found a water source (T) earlier that day but it was only an old pond full of mud that only the dog could drink without throwing up. They needed to get food and water and fast if they were to find others and hopefully if they were lucky Kates family.

They walked across the sun lit field for what seemed like ages although only a couple hours had passed. (T) Finally, when the sun stared on its way back towards the ground, they made it to the other side of the field where there was and abandoned looking city. They tried not to get there hopes up but they were unsuccessful and ended up sadly finding out that there were no people here. They searched through some old buildings and what used to be a beautiful garden but found nothing. “Ouch” Mr. Jacks yelled as he stubbed his toe on a pipe. They all looked down and saw that this pipe was from a well! This well supplied them with loads of water that they drank like wild dogs. Sure, they were happy that they found water but they were still left without any food of any sort. With all of them very hungry they found a place for shelter for the night and slept there with a few moth eaten blankets they had found and no pillows. When Kate woke up, she found that Mr. Jacks had already waken and gotten water from the well for her and Darby. Darby complained that there was no food for them to eat. Kate agreed for this was the (T) second day that she had not eaten. Then Darby slowly turned to the bulldog, “why are we lugging this dog around when our stomachs are empty, I say we eat it”. But Mr. Jacks quickly ruled that choice of food out. They decided to keep up their search of both people, food, and Kate's parents. They walked through the old city, the alley ways marked with shadows and a feeling of emptiness. By evening they made it back to more fields on the other side of the city. As it got dark, they started to look for a place to rest for the night. They sank to the ground by a tree excused from the day. (T) As soon as Kate was about to fall asleep Darby whispered, “What's that glow from over there?”. It looked like the glow of a fire and they heard traces of weird sounds coming from that direction.

After some discussion they decided to go check out the fire. As they got close the saw outlines of what looked like 6 people. Suddenly Kate screamed as she stepped on a snake causing the people around the fire to look their way. These were not people at all. They had green and purple skin and tentacles for legs. Their eyes say on antennae's on their heads. They were... Aliens. “Ahhh some food personally delivered” said one of the aliens. “and what is this small one here on four legs” another one said, “an appetizer by the looks of it”. “Wait” cried Darby, “You would eat us?”. “Yes of course, we have nice little cages for you earthlings and just eat you as we wish. You are helpless compared to us.” Said the tallest alien. Mr. Jacks stepped forward and began to discuss with the aliens why they should not eat us and how we are just like them. The aliens were surprised that the humans cared about their lives so much and were sorry for killing and eating the humans. They came to an agreement that they could eat the bulldog as an appetizer and then the aliens would go back to their planet. Kate, Darby, and Mr. Jacks minus the dog when on their way successfully having rescued all the people and set off to find Kates parents.
