History

7 0

Answer:

The British wouldn't kowtow

Explanation:

Great Britain wanted to open trade with China as it was the main mission of exploration. They had hoped to gain access to the goods China provided. As with all of China's trade partners, they expected a sign of respect shown to the emperor before trade could begin. The British traveling group were asked to bow in front of the emperor to seal the deal. The envoy refused as they could only bow to their own king, which got them thrown out for the time being.

In which respect is a secondary source more helpful than a primary source
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A secondary source summarizes large amounts of evidence.

Explanation:

Primary sources correspond to “primary literature” and are those that present themselves and are disseminated exactly as they are produced by their authors.  Primary sources are original materials on which other research is based.  This type of source presents the information in its original form, without interpretation, summarization or evaluation by other writers.

On the other hand, secondary sources are interpretations and evaluations of primary sources for this reason present a series of evidences that support their interpretations. In this sense, secondary sources may be more useful than a primary source.

Within months H1N1 spread to almost every country on the planet and was considered a Pandemic. The reason it was called "The Spanish Flu" is because Spain was the only country to report this in their news media. similar to what china tried to do by not reporting about the virus at first. The reason the 1918 was so deadly was because it emerged right as World War 1 ended and soldiers where moving all across the planet to return from the war to their home country which made the virus spread like wildfire and now with SARS-CoV-2 millions of people travel to the other side of the planet within hours daily which made it spread so fast.
