5 0

John Proctor came from a well-to-do colonial family. His parents had come from England to America in 1635. His father, John Proctor, Sr., owned a number of properties in Ipswich, Massachusetts, and held offices in the colony. His son John, who became famous as the first male accused of witchcraft by the Salem witch trials, also had a position more privileged than others. He leased a 700-acre estate, and also was licensed to operate a tavern in Salem.

The younger John Proctor was dramatized in a powerful play by playwright Arthur Miller, written in 1953. The Crucible was Miller's way of comparing hysteria over suspected communists with the Salem witch trials.

The Columbus Exchange was a very negative event that had many impacts on natives for what I can see. A very important and major impact this caused was a spread of a disease called smallpox. This disease infected many people part of their community as lead to death in many causing there population to decline quickly. People have even been said to believe that 90% of the natives who got infected with this disease died which can show that it was very deadly. Lucky we do not have to worry about this horrible disease.

<h3>Question-</h3>

Fill in the blanks.

<h3>Answer-</h3>

Tense of the verb tells when(time of an action) an action is done. There are three tenses of the verbs: past tense, present tense, and the future tense. Past tense tells about actions that happened in the past. “Was” or “were” are added before the main verbs to change it in past tense. Present tense tells about actions that are currently happening in the present(did some changes to the question). We add “is” or “are” to change the verb into present tense. Future tense tells about actions that will happen in the future. Adding “will” or “shall” to the verb will change it in future tense.

→I did some minor changes to the question too, you can check.
