The correct answer is: C. questions to arise over the use of nuclear energy.  

The accident at Three Mile Island was a nuclear accident in Pennsylvania and it happened on March 28th of 1979. It significantly reduced the confidence of the population in nuclear power plants and increase the fears associated with nuclear technology. Also, the Three Mile Island accident was bad for the global development of nuclear power. Because of this event, the number of reactors under construction in the US declined.

The correct answer is C: In 1979, a major accident at Three Mile Island caused <u>questions to arise over the use of nuclear energy.</u>

Even though the Three Mile Island accident did not cause deaths nor injuries to plant workers or members of the nearby community and no one was exposed to harmful radiation, public confidence in nuclear energy declined, a lot of people opposed the construction of new plants, and there were several campaigns by anti-nuclear activist groups.

All of this resulted in a significant decline of nuclear construction in the following decades (through 1980s to 1990s): Seven operating reactors at Three Mile Island were shut down immediately, the NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission) did not issue any reactor construction permits, approval for new plants by the NRC was delayed for years and a lot of orders and projects were cancelled (For example: utilities companies canceled over 120 reactor orders because of the soaring costs and stagnating electricity demand)

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Although the riot was originally against the draft, it quickly became racially charged against black people. As the rioters believed that the liberation of black slaves and their subsequent migration to the Union would saturate the labor market, and create greater competition for white middle-class immigrant workers.

It is also worthy to note that the dependancy of NYC on the cotton trade with the South was also another reason for the general discontent against the draft and the war itself.

2. Why do you think the director chose to have Guido die at the end of the film? How would it be
kirill [66]

In the movie "Life is Beautiful" Guido's death is related to the reality of the Nazi concentration camps, with the director bringing the approach that individuals were hostages of this situation and nothing could change it.

Guido's death in the film corresponds to a powerful scene, as it shows him keeping the game character he had invented with his son until he was taken by a soldier to be killed.

<h3 /><h3>Life is Beautiful</h3>

This is a 1997 Italian film starring Roberto Begnini as Guido, who during the Second World War is captured and forced to go to a concentration camp.

The plot takes place through the use of Guido's imagination inventing that he and his son were in a game, where the boy should perform tasks to win, being a way to protect his son from the real situation and the violence that occurred in the camps.
