Answer:

Explanation:

In the play "Hamlet" written by William Shakespeare, Gertrude is the character about whom not much is revealed in the play. Her participation in the murder of the old King Hamlet was a mystery.

In the passage, Gertrude's character is critical towards Hamlet. In Act 1, Scene 2 of the play, when Hamlet mourns over the death of his father by wearing black clothes, which represents mourning, Gertrude criticizes Hamlet for the prolonged period of mourning.

With this, we can say that Gertrude is critical of Hamlet's mourning and asks him to move on.

So, the correct answer is option C.

Answer:

Child Labor

Health Hazards

Tenement Housing

Explanation:

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

Children should not be doing the work of adults. They are still developing and could endure many injuries doing this work. Their work environments were hazardous and affected them.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

It was addressed by the fair labor standards act which was successful in making child labor illegal.

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe that the social problem was addressed successfully because it completely stopped the issue. There were no more large-scale cases in which this continued legally in the U.S.

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

This was also a very important issue to address. Many people got sick and died due to the unsanitary environment they abided in. If this wasn’t addressed people would continue to get ill and die.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

The cities eventually introduced filtration and chlorination systems to be able to improve the water quality and safety.

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe it was partially successful because the water was cleaner but still not very safe. Entering the 20th century many people did not have completely safe water.

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

This needed to be reformed because the people living in the tenement houses lived in very poor conditions. It was an unsanitary dangerous way of living. They did not have basic necessities and had to share the few they did have with many others.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

The problem was not really addressed. More buildings were built for tenement housing because the owners noticed they would profit more by renting to more people in smaller spaces.

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe this social problem was addressed poorly because it wasn’t really addressed at all. As time went on, they were no longer as popular and were no longer in use. But that wasn’t due to any action taken to improve or change the housing.

1) How is the American government involved in the economy?

Ratling [72]

1. The American government guides the overall pace of economic activity. Its goal is to maintain steady growth, high levels of employments and price stability. It is best achieved by adjusting spending and tax rates ( fiscal policy ), managing the money supply and controlling the use of credit ( monetary policy ). The government can slow down or speed up the country's economy's rate of growth which affects the level of prices and employment. Another role of the government in the economy is to correct market's failures, provide public goods and enforce competition.

2. During the recession that followed the Great Depression for example, the government cut taxes to curb competition and increased the money supply via the control of interest rates. During a financial crises in any given time, the government tried to guarantee secure loans, bail out some troubled banks and adjust the money supply.

3. The federal budget has an affect on jobs, investments, economic growth and the standards of living of ordinary people. Tax cuts benefit many companies and individual businesses, and so do interest rates. Governmental investments in infrastructure and various projects ( education, health care ) have a direct affect on ordinary people, as the level of governmental spending on them reflects the level of services provided and received.
