Read the excerpt from "Lewis Hine Helps a Nation See the Light." Once inside a factory, Hine quickly got to work photographing c

hildren. He also talked to them, using a small notebook to record as much information as possible about their working conditions, education, and ages. He even measured the children's height by using the buttons of his coat. One example from his notebook reads, "Furman Owens, twelve years old. Can't read. Doesn't know his ABC's. Said, 'Yes I want to learn, but can't when I work all the time.'" Which statement gives a historical detail that can clarify a reader's understanding of the excerpt? Children lost all interest in going to school because they were making so much money working. Children did not get the chance to go to school because they had to work every day from morning to evening. Children did not have to go to school because they were being taught at home by their parents. Children decided not to go to school because they had so much fun during their free time.

The correct answer is:

Children did not get the chance to go to school because they had to work every day from morning to evening.

Lewis Wickes Hine (1874 – 1940) was an American sociologist and photographer who worked for the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC), documenting child labor, especially in the Carolina Piedmont, to support the NCLC's lobbying work to end that practice. In 1913, Wickes documented child workers in the cotton mill industry with Francis Galton.

In what Fear can teach us by Karen Walker Which quote from the text best supports this answer: The sailors’ fear of cannibalism
uysha [10]

The  quote from the text that  best supports the answer is -To be eaten by cannibals, to be battered by storms, to starve to death before reaching land. These were the fears that danced in the imaginations of these poor men,

Explanation:

To be eaten by cannibals, to be battered by storms, to starve to death before reaching land. These were the fears that danced in the imaginations of these poor men.

By reading the above statement it is clear that the sailors fear that what  they chose to listen to would govern whether they lived or died.

In the year  1819  the crew of the whaleship Essex drifted in the middle of the Pacific. The ship was capsized for 24 hours and now it was the time to take a decision ,to make a plan but they had very few options. The narrator  Nathaniel Philbrick wrote that these men were just about as far from land as it was possible to be anywhere on Earth.

The nearest islands they could reach were the Marquesas Islands which was about  1,200 miles away from the ships position but then they have heard some frightening rumors about the island  populated by cannibals. Another option was  Hawaii, but  the captain was afraid they’d be struck by severe storms. Now the last option was the longest, and the most difficult: to sail 1,500 miles due south in hopes of reaching a certain band of winds that could eventually push them toward the coast of South America.
