Answer:

critically important

Explanation:

In this excerpt, pivotal is referring to the year 1775. The passage is saying that the year 1775 marked a turning point that was critical in the development of the American colonies.

Before 1775, the only manifestation of the massive public discontent with the abusive British tax laws had been unarmed resistance. After 1775, this struggle became an armed one and transformed in the War for Independence that would make the American colonies an independent nation free from the British crown.

<u>Answer</u>:

Using the context clue, the best definition of pivotal as it is used here is critically important. So, the right option is B.

<u>Explanation</u>:

John Buchanan’s “The Road to Valley Forge,” narrates the complete story of how Washington grew from an inexperienced Backwoods General to a true Commander-in-Chief of a fighting force. America's greatest hero is revealed through the book.

He was intelligent and courageous who struggled desperately to learn from his mistakes, who converted a diverse mix of militiamen into a real army, and who exhibited to all the Americans that they could become create their own destiny. So, 1775 was a pivotal year for the Americans because that year was a turnaround point in their lives.

!40 POINTS and BRAINLIST!
jonny [76]

Answer:

I think that our EMT'S, Firefighters, Doctors, and Nurses should all have a national holiday just for them, because they get up everyday not knowing what could possibly happen that day and continue to do their jobs wonderfully. Our doctors and nurses help us when we are sick the nurses help direct us and the doctors help to try and cure our sickness. Our EMT'S are also very important because the firefighters help save our lives if we are in a fire and the EMT'S  help to also save our lives if we are in a fire or have a medical emergency. So therefore that's why I believe our EMT'S, firefighters, doctors, and nurses should all have their own national holiday, because of all the wonderful things they do and they also put their lives on the live but also help save others lives.

Hope this helps :) PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE!

The sentence above indicates that his wife has the typical attitude of upper class women during that time, spoiled and cowardly and Since hindley Earnshaw also grew within that society, he basically displayed the same charactr.
