What was the romantic image of the West, and what was the reality?
svetlana [45]

After the Civil War Americans began considering expanding into the west of the nation. They were inspired by the vast land and excited by its opportunities. This excitement of Manifest Destiny helped to create the American Dream. The Great expanse of the American Midwest was idealized as a vast picturesque, open expanse with the limitless possibility in store for those willing and able to tame the land. The problem was that were was no wood on the plains, Mountains made building the railroad more difficult and the barren, dry landscape made settling a challenge.

Families went to the West excited to create a life of their own out of nothing. The idea of farming brought them a great opportunity. But farming in the Plains revealed to be very challenging. The landscape was incredibly dry and there was a minimal rainfall. Families struggled to keep their crops growing and producing, and when they succeeded, storms often destroyed their harvests.

There was also a myth regarding the Native Americans that pictured them as uncivilized savages. However the Native culture was an advanced and sophisticated one, and the term uncivilized depends on one’s viewpoint. They were always depicted as the villain of the story, often the one-dimensional character that is bent on theft in fictional stories.

Answer:

This is a metaphor to be good to those in power. That means respect your government, teachers, and parents, despite your personal beliefs. I'm guessing a pastor would be most likely to quote this passage.

Answer: (this is gonna be a crazy answer)

Explanation: I think it was right to drop the bomb on Japan. The reason for this is because even though many people died, and the fact that most of their land had gotten destroyed, this helped them resolve their problem between the two. If it weren't for the bomb, they would have fought longer. And after that tragedy, this gave Americans and the Japanese to bond and help rebuild japan not only to protect them from other bombs, but to also make sure that no one else can take their land. Therefore, even though it may not have been the best decision, it was right to to drop the bomb on them.

(You don't have to agree with this this is just my opinion but hopefully you get an idea to form your own sentence if you can)
