Answer:

Rather the answer is, B ( it implies he has no choice in the career he will have)

Explanation:

The reason this is the correct answer is because throughout the passage it constantly reinforces that Benjamin, as a child did not have much of a say it what he did. He simply did what his father wanted.

For instance "My early readiness in learning to read (which must have been very early, as I do not remember when I could not read), and the opinion of all his friends, that I should certainly make a good scholar, encouraged him in this purpose of his".

This shows his eagerness to please his father.

Hope this helps! ^u^

The correct answer for this question is A) It explains that at least one son must join the church (according to his dad)

The wording of this paragraph leads us to believe that the expression ''as the tithe of his sons'' demonstrates <u><em>how his father intended for at least one of his sons to serve the church</em></u>. This phrase denotes that none of his brothers chose to serve the church and had instead chosen different paths which led his dad to offer him as a last resource.

It could also imply the importance of church for his dad however thats entirely subjective.

This paragraph does not mention his brother's intelligence and definitely does not imply that he does not have a choice hence the wording ''my father intending to devote me (...)'' meaning his dad tried to offer him but he later decided otherwise.

Hope this helps!

An appreciation of the U.S. dollar makes foreign goods cheaper relative to American goods, resulting in a ________ in net export
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The best answers to the two blank spots in the question: A appreciation of the U.S dollar makes foreign goods cheaper relative to American goods, resulting in a ____ in net exports in the U.S. and a ____ shift if the IS curve in the U.S., everything else held constant, would be: 1. decrease, or fall, of net exports in the U.S and 2. left shift of the IS curve.

Explanation:

In economics, many factors will influence how products, services, goods, sales, income, exports, imports, and many more elements of economics, will work. But essentially, and for the purpose of this particular question, when the cost of the dollar (appreciation) rises, meaning buying something produced in the U.S costs more because of that appreciation, then, foreign goods, whose currencies are less appreciated than the dollar, will become cheaper, and thus, preferrable. This will directly impact the export activities because people will prefer products that are cheaper in cost. As this happens, and almost as a chain reaction, the IS curve, which is a representation of the combination of incomes and real interest rates, will tend to the left, as the American goods and services are less elected by consumers because they are more expensive.
