History

Answer:  A. The creation of an Electoral College to select the President.

Details:

The Electoral College is the way that Presidents of the United States gain the office of the presidency.  Each state has a specified number of delegates, and the popular vote in each state determines how the state's designated electors are to vote.  In this way, the President is chosen not solely on the basis of the national popular vote totals, but more so on the basis of state-by state vote totals.

As defined by the US National Archives, "The Electoral College is a process, not a place. The founding fathers established it in the Constitution as a compromise between election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens.   The Electoral College process consists of the selection of the electors, the meeting of the electors where they vote for President and Vice President, and the counting of the electoral votes by Congress."

Electoral votes are allocated among the states based on the Census. Every state is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its members in the U. S. House of Representatives.

Analyze. Gladwell examines the history of the U.S. public school system in section . 2 (lines 53–115) before he discusses summer
stiks02 [169]
His ideas in section 2 discuss about student's minds resembling rice paddies, needing cultivation and rest. This idea leads to the unquestioned feature of Summer vacation in American education. In section 3, he begins to question it. He goes to the point of suggesting that Asian schools succeed because they have minimal or no summer vacation.

What is the significance of the “Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact”?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: The purpose of the pact was to open the way for both nations to invade Poland. Hitler wanted a nonaggression pact with the Soviet Union so that his armies could invade Poland virtually unopposed by a major power, after which Germany could deal with the forces of France and Britain in the west without having to simultaneously fight the Soviet Union on a second front in the east.
