Your questions asks why the Southern Military (Confederacy) decided to defend instead of attack.
Your answer would be C). Southern leaders thought their knowledge of Southern lands would help them defeat the Union forces.
The reason why this would be the correct answer is because the South believed that their knowledge of their land would give them the advantage in winning the war. In other words, you can say that the South "played home field." The terrain in the South was different than the terrain in the North, so they used it to get the Northerners (the Union) confused when trying to attack them. The Southerners knew where everything is: all of the bases, hiding spots, etc, and used it to a certain advantage. All in all, the Southern leaders thought that the Union would be weaker on unknown territory.
Answer: c. younger workers pay taxes that cover pensions, retirement, and healthcare for elderly people.
Explanation:
The younger generation are the working age population. Because they have jobs, they can be taxed for the benefit of society. Their taxes go towards many social programs including pensions, retirement benefits and healthcare for the elderly.
If the population is aging, it means that there would be more elderly people. Elderly people no longer work and so cannot be taxed as much to provide the aforementioned benefits so an aging population presents a problem to their welfare.
The plant could produce many cars in a short period of time.

It is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.
"My Antonia" is a novel by Willa Cather in 1918. The novel is about the story of the pioneers of Nebraska and their life in the Old West, making emphasis on the role of the women during that time. This excerpt mainly explains how despite their low resources, the girls learned from life, from poverty, from their mothers and grandmothers and makes a comparison of how they were even more interesting than the younger brothers and sisters who had advantages were not better than them. Which supports the theme that is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.
