The correct answer is A. Even in that time, there was a lower, middle, and upper class of society.

Explanation:

Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe was published in 1719 and tells the story of a man called Robinson Crusoe who lives in a desert island for 28 years after a shipwreck. In the excerpt presented, the main character explains the thoughts and words of his father as he expresses his desire of becoming a sailor.

In this excerpt in terms of historical context the father of Crusoe refers to different social class by stating "these things were all either too far above me or too far below me; that mine was the middle state" that suggest Crusoe and his family belong to Middle class and only those that were from the upper class "superior fortunes" or those in the lower class "desperate fortunes" should follow the same path than Crusoe according to this father. Therefore, the historical context shows "even in that time, there was a lower, middle, and upper class of society".

What does the sentence (words do not pay ) mean or wants to say.
Karolina [17]

Say you are saying an apology... it doesn't mean anything until your ACTIONS show it. Words do not pay the deeds you have done, you need to prove it to others, that you are truly sorry, AND change your habits. If you don't even change your habits, then people will know that you weren't even sorry in the first place, and that you just said it to get it over with. Words also do no pay what you say. If you say a word to your family that isn't so nice... words can't pay unless your actions show it.

So what I am trying to get at is words do not pay, unless your actions show that you are truly sorry, and that your actions backup your words.

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;

How did America break through established boundaries in the second half of the 20th century
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

European nations staked claims on paper while tribes claimed the ground itself, but the border remained a work in progress, an imaginary line, until troops clashed and treaties settled the question.  

In 1849, after the Mexican-American War, the United States sent teams of surveyors, soldiers and laborers to mark this new line in the desert, which sounded simple but proved difficult. The teams struggled as the Southwest seethed with conflict.

What is a first-person narrative?
miskamm [114]
We write and speak in three different 'persons' . . .

Let's say I'm telling you something about Sam.

I'm the first person. You're the second person. Sam is the third person.

First Person:  I, we, us

Second Person: You, you-all

Third Person:  He, she, it, they, them

So there are three different ways to write or tell the same story.

Most stories that you read are written either in the First person or the Third person.

<u>"First-person narrative" is a story being told by the person it's about</u>.
"I'm Al. I got up in the morning. Then I got dressed, I went to the store, and bought milk."

"Third-person narrative is a story being told about somebody.
"Sam got up in the morning. Then he got dressed, he went to the store, and he got milk."

I saved "Second-person narrative" for last, because it's not used very often
and so it sounds weird.  But there ARE whole books written in Second-person:
"Your name is Johhny Schlaffgut.  You went to bed early last night because
yesterday was a tough day at the office and you were tired. But this morning
you felt OK. You woke up, you got dressed, and you went to the store for milk."
