Answer:

B) show patriotism

Explanation:

War bonds are a financial instrument used by states to finance military operations during a period of war. Like any other type of bond, interest accrues and the State amortizes the debt (that is, the State acquires a debt with an individual or an institution and has to return the borrowed money to the creditor and pay the corresponding interest). These bonds are also subject to classification by independent organizations that evaluate the security of the bond.

They can be guaranteed or not, and have a duration of short, medium or long term. Even if the bonds are guaranteed, if the issuing government is in bad shape after the war, the creditor runs the risk of losing the money invested.

According to her employer Mrs. Hobbs, what was Ellen's status in New York? She was a free young woman she was "given" to Mr Hobb

marta [7]

Answer:

She was a free young woman.

Explanation:

Harriet Jacob's "Incidents In The Life Of A Slave Girl" is a memoir that provides a narrative in the life of a slave woman. The book delves into the system of slavery, and how Linda( protagonist and a pseudonym for Harriet) had to endure hardships and obstacles to be united with her family amidst her fight for personal freedom and family life.

Mrs. Hobbs is the cousin of Mr. Sands, the father of Linda's children. In chapter XXVII, Mrs. Hobb's letter to Linda's grandmother revealed that Linda's daughter Ellen was "given" to her, to be "[her] little waiting maid". She went on further to state the condition of Ellen's 'presence' in the Hobbs' house, revealing: "I shall send her to school, and I hope someday she will write to you herself."

This shows that Ellen was 'given' to Mrs. Hobbs but that doesn't mean she is a slave and Mrs. Hobbs liked to believe that she is rather a free young woman while still under them.

Explain Gies’ motivation for helping Jewish families during the war.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

According to Gies, the motivation was simply the fact that she wanted to help and she would have felt regret, if she let innocent people die.

Explanation:

Till the end of her life, Gies, never considered herself a hero. She explained that it was human nature to help someone and clearly stated, that by calling her actions 'brave' or 'heroic' would put on her on a pedestal, and demotivate other people to act out kindly when needed.

Gies was Dutch and had worked with Jewish people before. She felt empathy and always thought her actions were natural, human and not at all special.
