There is a public debate between the three candidates for the U.S. Senate. During the debate, the topics of oil and energy are a

ddressed. Each candidate expressed their view on the issue: Edgar Eisenhower: "We need to cut our dependence on foreign oil. Instead, let's use the natural world around us. Think about the sun, wind, water, the heat of the earth, and the crops in our fields. These will make for affordable energy in the 21st century. We should fund research in those areas. Let us also increase tax credits for private investment in clean, renewable sources of energy." Rebecca Roosevelt: "We need to cut our dependence on foreign oil and develop a national energy strategy. We should provide tax incentives for producing energy in the U.S. Let's increase U.S. supplies of coal, oil, and natural gas. We should promote environmentally responsible exploration and development of oil and gas reserves. That includes federal land like Alaska's National Wildlife Refuge. Let's also advance clean coal technology." Terrance Taft: "Looking at our energy supply is one thing-how we're using it is another. We can drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars. We can invest in more efficient technology for our homes and businesses. These things add up and make a big difference. In fact, in several new buildings associated with Taft Inc., we address our energy needs with locally produced renewable energy. That wouldn't be possible if we were using outdated, energy guzzling technology." Debra is a voter who believes that the success of the oil industry is very important to the health of the national economy. Based on their platforms, which candidate would Debra likely support?
a. She would likely support Rebecca Roosevelt because she supports increased
production of oil.
b. She could make a good case for supporting any of the candidates based on
their platforms.
c. She would likely support Terrance Taft because he supports reducing use of
gas and oil.
d. She would likely support Edgar Eisenhower because he has the most
experience working with the oil industry.

umka21 [38]

La respuesta correcta es C) Periodo de explotación del petróleo ecuatoriano desde 1972.

¿De qué se trató el Boom Petrolero?

Del periodo de explotación del petróleo ecuatoriano desde 1972.

La bonanza petrolera en el Ecuador, o también llevada el Boom petrolero del Ecuador comenzó en el año de 1972 con la inauguración del famoso SOTE, que quiere decir Sistema de Oleoducto Transecuatoriano. En aquella época, ese desarrollo de pozos petroleros permitió que el país exportada el petróleo crudo a otros países a precios competitivos. De acuerdo a estadísticas del gobierno ecuatoriano, las exportaciones llegaron a ser de 25 millones de barriles a un precio de $2.50 dólares por barril de crudo.

Esa bonanza le ayudó a Ecuador a fortalecer su economía, aumentando sus ingresos por exportaciones hasta en un 49%, comparados con el año anterior.

What was the terrorist’s main goal in committing the September 11, 2001, attacks?
Oxana [17]

Letter B is correct.

The attacks took place because Osama Bin Laden (the leader of al-Qaeda), who had naïve beliefs about the United States, wanted to punish America the same way he had been punished in the past when the U.S supported the Israelis destroying the towers in Lebanon and killing their people. <u>The 9/11 terrorist attack was considered a huge success for al-Qaeda because it killed and affected many people and damaged the US economy.</u> Al-Qaeda's target was a good choice since the World Trade Center was the heart of New York and its financial district which kept their markets closed for 4 trading days and provoked record losses.
